Ain Alsheria Geological Trail (Yibir) Fujairah Hike

This Trail is laid by Fujairah adventures and it is one of the best Trails that gives a wealth of exposure to various coloured hills, different coloured Rocks, ancient Petroglyphs, Functional farms with vegetable / fruits in the gardens, Various formations of Rock Layers and excellent views of the Yibir / Mebrah mountain range.

The access road of Yibir mountain is damaged in certain parts and needs caution and concentration while driving. Any car can reach the hike area, but caution is needed in steep sections.
At the base of the Yibir mountain, the Graded offroad that leads to Sidaqah village has to be taken. Once you reach down to the village, the road takes you through the village to the starting point of the Hike.
Parking is very limited, so best is to park bit away so as not to block the roads as Locals inhabitants still live there and use the road.
The Trail head can be reached by searching on google maps for Fujairah Adventures Ain Alsheria Hiking Trail.
The GPS coordinates are 25.606475, 56.153405
I suggest you park 500 Meters before this area.
We also saw many cars parked on other side of the mountain, where there is ample of space available.
The GPS coordinates are 25.606475, 56.153405
You could park here and start the hike here too, but you need to study the Trail path as you need to enter into the Farm for the Trail.
Best would be to download gpx file of the trail and follow it.

The Trail is well laid, so no chances of getting lost.
Almost there are no shades except for small trees, so for a group of 10 persons, you may not find enough rest shelter. Most of the Trail is exposed to Sun except to the starting point Wadi area.
There are few Elevation gain Ascent hills, which may seem difficult but not actually difficult.
This is good for Beginner hikes.
in very few places there are very short stretches of exposed places, so need to be careful. Its perfectly safe as long as you are concentrating on the trail.
Almost at the Midpoint of the Trail, you will find a Big Cubicle Rock which has Petroglyphs of various meanings. Next to this Rock, there is a steep Rocky mountain, which majority of the hikers climb. At few places it is exposed and steep terrain with few drops, so be careful climbing it.
The Trail has lots of variations of colours and shapes of the rocks and Rock formation Layers.
