1A Sky Tour Over the Jebel Jais Cliffs

If zipping from one place to another has been your lifelong dream, the Jais Sky Tour is your gateway to it. A self-guided aerial tour that gives you awe-inducing views of the Hajar mountains, also takes you to UAE's highest sky bridge which is nearly 1,250 meters above sea level and 300 meters above the ground.

The zipline covers a total distance of 5 kms via a series of 6 ziplines, ranging from 337 meters just over 1 km, with an average speed of about 60 kmph. The experience takes about an hour, and we're sure you'll come back for seconds.

P.S. there's a small little weight restriction you should know about.

No, we're not kidding. If you're zipping through at a speed of about 120 kmph, you'd call it flying too, wouldn't you? The Jebel Jais Flight is the world's longest zipline adventure, that starts at a point 1,680 meters above sea level. Insane, right?

Here's something more insane, top speed on this zipline, can actually go up to 160 kmph, and no, we're not kidding. At all. But rest assured, this experience is entirely safe and in fact, absolutely worth doing because of the adrenaline it gives you.
