How it works
Drive up Jebel Jais Road; the Samar trail starts near the last turn before Viewpoint 1, with Al Teen, Sidir, Al Asbaq and Farfar as shorter options. Go clockwise on Samar if you are new to it.
The catch
Markers thin out on the Samar loop near the Aneayad settlement, so carry a map or GPS track.
Bring
Water, a warm layer, sturdy shoes
