Here are our top suggestions this weekend:

1. Go hiking

Hiking is one of the most efficient ways to work out while enjoying the beauty of nature. While there are no hiking trails in Qatar, you can choose one of the many natural landscapes around the country that will provide a good exercise and a scenic view. One of the best places in Qatar for hiking lovers is Zekreet, about 80km away from Doha. A 44km-long hike with many sites along the way, such as Zekreet Film City and Zekreet Fort. Remember to bring lots of water and your sunscreen!
