Kahl to Wadi Sharm

The drive from the village of Kahl to Wadi Sharm is one of the most popular drives regardless of the season. The route hightlights include the gravel plain, through the foothills, the sandy hidden valley, to the multi-colored stones, the three graves and finally, where Wadi Sharm is at its widest, the stunning dunes of 'Big Red'.

Exposed rock at the beginning of the route	These sedimentary layers have been inverted almost 90 degrees	Sand drapes over the foothills of the Hajar mountains as we enter the series of secluded valleys	Ghaf trees grow naturally in this area
Footprints in the sand	Camels are often seen along the route	A rare overcast sky	The gentle sloping dunes of 'Big Red'
Swiss Mountain in the distance	Clay accumulates in depressions after a rain	There is a minimum of garbage along the route but a new road may change that	The sun low in the sky over 'Big Red'
