Eid is coming up, and with it, the scorching summer sun. But fear not; Saudi Arabia has the most beautiful mountain retreats with year-round pleasant climes that are calling your name. This time the Eid holidays are pretty long—it’s nine days in some offices, so go ahead and make the most of them.
Mountain magic awaits. If you’re looking for a mountain escape with all the bells and whistles, Taif is your jam. This historic city sits at a cool 6,100 feet above sea level.
Plus, the city has added so many new places for tourists to visit this year that even if you visited the city a dozen times, there’s more to do this time around.

But even if you don’t get a bed, the place is perfect for forest camping.
Just bring your camping essentials and spend the night in the Arabian forest. A post shared by حمّاد الهذلي📸 (@hammad_alhuthali.ph) It won’t be an exaggeration to say Al-Namas is one of the most scenic spots in the country.
Think towering cliffs, weathered slopes, and a landscape straight out of an adventure movie. Be sure to check out the Al-Namas Reservoir, which has some cool activities like kayaking to do in it. A post shared by MUSAMMIL (@__.
