Itinerary description
This is the EPIC RIDE from Oman Dibba to Khasab. Full day. One way with an overnight stay in Khasab and back to Dibba next day. The road is closed and controlled by Oman police in the middle - Wadi Beih. You actually need a permit to cross but I agreed with them that I will be back next day and they let me pass. Even more - border police guys gave me a ride on their car to climb to the second mountain - about 1200m up! If not I would finish very late at night if not morning)). You can make this ride partly if not crossing the controlled point - better from Khasab side. Real total climb 2634 m!

How did you get on with getting water on that tour?
Got full backpack 2-3 small cans of coke
Looks like a great route. How far into the ride is the control point? Am thinking if it is best to start in Dibba or Khasab to get the longer ride if turned back at the control point. Things may have changed since 2017.
It's better to start from Khasab, will be longer and more dramatic views!
Appreciate it
Great Job man
