Mountain Roads \ud83c\udfd4\ufe0f<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"580\" data-end=\"783\">Winding routes through the Hajar Mountains bring sharp turns, deep valleys, and breathtaking cliff views. Areas like Jebel Akhdar and Jebel Shams turn every drive into a cinematic climb above the clouds.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"152d83a\" data-start=\"785\" data-end=\"815\"><span role=\"text\"><strong data-start=\"789\" data-end=\"815\">2. Desert Highways \ud83c\udfdc\ufe0f<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"816\" data-end=\"987\">Long, open roads stretch across golden sands and endless horizons.

Wadi Routes \ud83c\udf3f<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1210\" data-end=\"1366\">Some drives take you into green valleys and rocky riverbeds, especially after rainfall.
