Itinerary description

I made a mistake in ending the Hike on Wikiloc, so end point is in Ajman.
Actually the start and end point is the same on Yanas mountain.
Hiking that involves flat hike, steep Ascent & Descent and Bouldering in the Wadi.

There are many options for hiking in this area, we chose the straight forward Trail of Yanas mountain offroad end point to Sal village via Azabat village.

Due to the terrain and Trails, we didnt enter Azabat village, rather we got the view of it while moving towards Sal Village.
There are quite many nice views of the Wadi Naqab Gorge, Sheri village ( hiking trail area ), Baqal Village ( hiking trail area ) Abandoned Village ( Beginner hike area ) in addition to Sal offroad from wadi Ghail side, Ras Al Khaimah city and the Arabian Gulf too.

The start point of this hike is on offroad, so a 4X4 vehicle is needed.
The Offroad starts at Wadi Naqab junction point ( noted on google maps ). Its a straight forward drive till the start point.

Hike Starting point coordinates is below.
25.732532, 56.112465
You could also search "Jebal Yans" on Google Maps.
Note the Spelling !!!!!

You will really enjoy nice views of the valley and pleasant weather.
Sal village at the end of the trail has some impressive stone buildings and houses constructed on the mountains in addition to many terrace fields, now not being farmed.

Please do not enter any of these buildings, fences or properties as the habitants still live there and do not like any intruders. You can simply enjoy the view and walk across the trail without disturbing anyone or animals.
Do not open any gates, as those gates are there on purpose for keeping the animals away.

Do Not Try Any Mountain Hikes If You Do Not Understand The Mountain Terrains, Dangers From Wildlife, First Aid, Hydration And Snacks, Your Own Fitness, Remote Activity Preparations, Communication Tools, Mountain Geography, Topography, Risk Factors, HSE Requirements, Hiking Risks, Fitness Level Of The Group Members.
Study All Above Matters Well Before Following Any Trails That You Find Online. Please Do Not Over Estimate Yourself.
Better Be Safe Than Put Yourself / Group In Danger And Regret Later.
Lately We Have Seen A Lot Of Unwanted Hiking Incidents That Could Have Been Avoided With Better Preparation.
Wish You All The Best.
