Travel Guide Wadi Al-Abyad

Twenty kilometers from Nakhal, turn north towards As Sibaykha. The tarmac stops and invites you to meander in your 4x4 between natural water basins for around ten kilometers. You'll sometimes be surprised by the milky color of the water, due to suspended calcite, to which the name of the wadi refers - even though, when we passed through, the pools were clear. When the track becomes too narrow, continue on foot along the riverbed to the village of Al Abyad, a good hour's walk away. The trail is well-marked and makes for a beautiful walk punctuated by plantations and pools. Swimming possible.
