WADI DARBAT













Salalah is the capital city of Oman's  Dhofar region, The region is famous for its khareef (monsoon), and the Khareef Festival Wadi Darbat is a natural park with majestic views of waterfalls, lakes, mountains, caves, wildlife and lush green vegetation. There is a 100 meter waterfall and many cave chambers with old stalactites and stalagmites. The caves were used by the shepherds as shelter and one can see colored paintings of animals on the cave walls. At the end of the Wadi, there is a cave which is considered to be the largest natural cave in Oman.

  “The Khareef is the major attraction during the summer period.  People come from all over the world to enjoy the unique wonders of nature, rain, mist-soaked mountains, green-cloaked valleys, springs and waterfalls.
