Bani Awf · Nakhal, Rustaq & Barka · Oman
★★★★☆ Beach & outdoors
No admission charge for anyone. Parking or transport may still cost.
The hard mountain crossing between Rustaq and Al Hamra, with Snake Canyon halfway - a slot canyon you swim and scramble through. Free. The road is 4x4-only and genuinely serious. Take a guide for the canyon; people have died in it.

The planner warns of extreme heat in June; and hot in May, July, August, September, October. Outside those months it says nothing, which is the point — a warning that fires every day is one nobody reads.
