- Nakhal Fort - The tour continues to Nakhal, where visitors can explore the stunning Nakhal Fortress. Situated at the foothills of the mountains in a charming small town known for its extensive date palm plantations, this magnificent 1500-year-old fortress emerges from the mountain rock, towering above the ancient village as if still warning potential attackers of its formidable strength. It has witnessed many battles and is filled with hidden escape routes and secret passages. Visitors can wander inside this restored fortress and explore all the rooms, which have been beautifully decorated in the original old style. The view from the top of the fortress over the mountains and lush date plantations is breathtaking.
- Ain Al Thawarah - From Nakhal Fort, the tour proceeds to the hot spring, nestled among date farms a few kilometers from Nakhal Fort. It flows year-round with warm mineral water collected in the site pools. Several chairs and shades are available in the “picnic area” near the pool. After visiting the hot spring, the journey returns to Muscat.
