Photos Of This Massif In Southern Saudi Have Taken Over Instagram And It’s Easy To See Why
The wonders of southern Saudi that IG keeps throwing up every now and then just never stop. One of the latest that’s being widely shared is of a massif (that’s a group of mountains) called Jabal Al-Qahar.
That’s a pretty weird name because it roughly translates to “Struggle Mountain.” Struggle or not, the peaks here are a thing of beauty.
Located about 80km to the northeast of Jizan, you’ll have wallpaper-worthy sights to take in almost everywhere you look.

Don’t get too close though; the massif drops straight into an ancient valley below.
