Depending on the season you can visit the rose water factory, rose water from Jebel Akhdar is very famous in Oman. From a view point, see the villages on the other side that cling vertiginously to the rock walls, as well as the terraced rose plantations. If you wish you can do the trek W18b from Al Aqur village, your guide will meet you at the next village. Explore the hanging gardens before heading to your last stop, Wadi Bani Habib. A charming little abandoned village perched on a wadi, there is a trek to reach the village but you can also see it from the road.
