    Jebel Akhdar

    After breakfast we drive towards Diana's Viewpoint. The rim of the cliff here, with its celebrated panoramic view of the farmed terraces below, has a royal connection. Diana, Princess of Wales, enjoyed this spot on a royal visit to Oman with the future British king in 1986. The tourist office receives numerous enquiries about the location, a point not lost on two neighboring hotels that both encircle a potential viewpoint. They may be capitalizing on Diana's memory, but this doesn't detract from the spectacular visit.

    Wadi Bani Habib Hiking

    Wadi Bani Habib refers less to the wadi of walnuts and pomegranates that are still grown here, and more to the ruined village that lies wrapped around the bottom of the valley. An easy walking path leads down 200 steps to the wadi bottom, across the irrigation channel that keeps the orchards fertile, and up to a cluster of slowly decaying mud buildings on the other side. The whole area is picturesque but best avoided at weekends when it gets crowded and parking is difficult.
