🏞️ What Makes Wadi Tiwi Special?
Wadi Tiwi, often called the “Wadi of Nine Villages,” is nestled within the Eastern Hajar Mountains. It stretches from the coastal village of Tiwi all the way inland, winding through terraced plantations, ancient falaj irrigation systems, and towering cliffs. Thanks to natural freshwater springs, the wadi stays green all year round—making it a true oasis in the heart of Oman.
You’ll pass through villages like Mibam, Seema, and Harat Bidah, where time seems to stand still. This is more than just a nature trip—it’s a journey through Omani heritage, where the landscapes are just as rich as the stories behind them.
