Taif Season features a range of recreational, cultural and sporting activities, including “Sadet El Beid” – or hiking experience. 

The event is designed to encourage mountain hiking, while providing participants with the necessary safety measures, and requiring them to use the appropriate tools to practice the sport. Since the event began through to yesterday, around 100 people have taken part. 

Buses are provided to take participants to Al-Shafa, where they are assigned a team leader and assistants. They take a path through the rocks up the mountain, where they are overlooking Taif and can enjoy seeing fields of roses planted near the mountain.
