Wadi Tiwi, Wadi Shab Overview

Emerald coloured pools surrounded with beautiful banana plantations and date palms, Wadi Tiwi is not as famous as Wadi Shab but just as beautiful as the rest. For all of the adventurous folk out there, you can go on a 2-day hike from the wadi to some less explored parts of the region. Carry your own equipment and snacks when visiting Wadi Tiwi as there are no shops in the vicinity as Muscat is the closest city and it is 160 kms away.

A popular trek with a medium difficulty level, wade through the gorges to reach the beautiful Mibam Waterfalls. Camping is also a common activity here with the White Beach Campi Site. The difficulty level of the camping is medium as it is relatively easier than Wadi Shab and Wadi Bani Khalid.
