Visit Jebel Jais proudly announces the launch of the 2025/26 season. As the cooler season returns to the UAE, the country’s highest peak welcomes residents and visitors to reconnect with nature, with friends and family, and with themselves.
Jebel Jais is more than a destination; it is a place where life comes together, shaped by rock formations over 70 million years old. The new season, running through April 2026, invites guests to explore the mountain through three key pillars: educate, energize, and escape. Each pillar is designed to inspire curiosity, movement, and connection in its purest form.
Jebel Jais has long been a place of learning through experience - a living classroom where discovery is shared across generations. Visitors can join guided hikes that uncover the mountain’s natural heritage, learn survival skills at the Bear Grylls Explorers Camp (BGEC), or simply pause at the Jais Viewing Deck Park to take in the geology that has shaped Ras Al Khaimah for millions of years.
The Bear Grylls Explorers Camp, the first of its kind globally, reopens this season with an expanded program. This includes survival courses, team-building challenges and adventure activities, from rock climbing and abseiling to air rifle shooting and high ropes course. Overnight cabins nestled in the heart of the mountains offer a true back-to-nature experience under the stars.
As the UAE’s high-altitude hub for fitness and mindfulness, Jebel Jais continues to energize visitors through experiences that combine physical challenge with inner calm. Following the success of PEAK HEAT, the UAE’s first outdoor hot fitness experience, this season will feature new yoga sessions, guided hikes and sunrise
meditations. Each experience is crafted to restore energy and clarity amid the inspiring setting of the mountains.
Jebel Jais also remains one of the favourite escapes for supercar enthusiasts, luxury sports car groups, classic car communities and the wider automotive scene, who are drawn to its 28-kilometre winding mountain roads for the iconic drive, breathtaking vistas, and the unparalleled sense of freedom at the UAE’s highest peak.
Thrill-seekers can find their own rhythm in motion on Jais Flight, the world’s longest zipline, or take in the sweeping beauty of the Hajar Mountains on the Jais Sky Tour, a six-platform aerial journey that blends adrenaline with awe. Here, movement becomes renewal and every heartbeat echoes the mountain’s flow of energy.
To escape to Jebel Jais is to find balance for sharing time, laughter and connection high above the everyday. Across its peaks, valleys and terraces, visitors can enjoy moments that bring people together, over a meal, a hike or a quiet view.
Dining continues to elevate the Jebel Jais experience. At 1484 by Puro, the UAE’s highest and award-winning restaurant, guests can indulge in fresh, seasonal produce and ingredients sustainably sourced from the mountain. Each dish celebrates the region’s rich culture while showcasing a vibrant fusion of international flavors.
This season also marks the arrival of Red Rock BBQ, an exciting new dining concept by RIKAS Hospitality Group in partnership with Marjan. Opening this month, Red Rock BBQ will celebrate the beauty of Jebel Jais with its grill-focused, open-flame dining experience that blends high quality ingredients, refined design, and panoramic mountain views – capturing the very essence of the mountains.
Donald Bremner, CEO of Marjan Lifestyle comments, “Jebel Jais has always been a place where life comes together – a destination to feel alive through adventure, movement, or simply taking a moment to appreciate the mountains. This season, we are taking that spirit even further with new experiences that celebrate wellness, connection and the incredible natural beauty of Ras Al Khaimah. From hikers and
yogis to supercar and classic car aficionados, we are welcoming communities who share a common desire to reconnect, recharge, and create unforgettable moments at the UAE’s highest peak.”
