The mountain town of Hatta, dates back several centuries, and here you will travel back in time to an era of citadels, forts and towers in quiet retreat, all nestled securely in the craggy peaks of the Hajar Mountains.

Best known for its ancient Hatta Fort and the remnants of an old village, this fascinating area was once called Al Hajerin or Al Hajeran, in deference to the two mountain peaks guarding the north and south borders, making it a spectacular weekend escape.
