From Al Aqor, a technically more challenging trail (high stone steps!) Leads to Sayq. The path leads along terraced fields and original mountain villages. Its name is the Jebel Akhdar (= green) massif of the color of the mountains. Attention: The starting point of the hike is only to drive with 4x4, the route is indeed very well developed, but due to the gradient not with a normal vehicle to drive !!!!

If you walk from the last village (As Shuraiqa) toward As Saiq, you enter a restricted military area!!! Has anyone who has hiked the route noticed this?!
