Al Khaznah
Al Khaznah, near Al Fayah · Al Ain
Open dunes an hour from the city, close enough for a Friday-night desert camp without the Liwa drive.
- Free
- About 15 h
- Bring your own
- Needs a 4x4
How it works
Drive towards Al Khaznah, leave the road on a firm track and pitch in the dunes, well away from private land and farms.
The catch
You are on your own: no water, toilets or marked pitches, and you need a 4x4 to get off the tarmac.
Bring
Tent, water, food, recovery gear
You need
Do not camp on private land
