For UAE dwellers, spending Saturday morning trekking the country’s mountains might be a now-and-again event. Especially when the weather’s right, and they’ve had enough sleep to brave the early start.
But that’s not the case for friends Jameela Ahli, Al Anood Mubarak and Huda Bin Redha, as they spend almost every weekend challenging themselves to take on a new adventure across the Emirates.
“We primarily did road trips before starting hiking – we liked to explore the UAE. We’d open Google Maps and think, ‘This place looks beautiful,’ and just go there,” Ahli, 34, tells The National.
