SAAL Steps/ DEVIL STEPS

Saal Mountain, also known as Jabal Khoneh is a mountain in the village of Saal located in the outskirts of Muscat.

And this is famously known as Sa'al steps or the Devils steps. As the name says, yes, it is the most challenging trek ever experienced so far in and around Muscat in Oman.

We started our trek at 5 AM in the morning. And it took us around one and half hour to two hours to reach the summit. 

Total distance walked is 1.8 km and elevation gain are 355 metres. One needs good physical stamina to complete this trek as 95% of the trek is climbing stairs.

Beautiful sunrise, mesmerizing mountains and picturesque natural terrains everything was captured by our eyes in our memories. What a great start of the day!

We had wonderful memories and many lessons learned in the process - reaching the summit as a team, LOL's, pain, not leaving any of the teammate behind and at the end enjoying the taste of successful reach to summit.

This famous quote of Edmund Hillary reminds us to overcome our inner fears before conquering the world.

“It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves”.
