- Drive to Jebel Fihrayn popularly known as “the Edge of the World” which is 120 km from Riyadh. Standing atop the 1,000-foot high escarpment at Jabal Fihrayn, you will find stretching before you an uninterrupted view of the horizon in all directions, leaving you with the impression that you are, indeed, standing at the very edge of the world. The effect on one’s body and mind and soul is exhilarating. These cliffs rise dramatically from the desert, stretching toward the sky like a great natural wall.
- When you stand atop them and look toward the horizon, you have a prime view of the sky as it seems to melt into the barren earth. The Edge of the World (Jebel Fihrayn) is an unexpected and dramatic geological wonder in the rocky desert northwest of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The site earned its nickname because from atop the escarpment, you have an uninterrupted view of the horizon. It’s part of the much longer Tuwaiq Escarpment and drops down 1,000 feet into an ancient ocean bed.
- While standing on the cliffs, you’ll spot dried rivers weaving across the land, and see camels moving far below. These camels and their herders are following a well-trodden path, as an ancient caravan route once passed within its shadow.
- After your tour ends, you will be dropped back at your hotel.
