Another place to discover in Al Wathba π΄ββοΈ
Al Wathba is not only known for its lake and camping area. It also has a beautiful cycling track in the middle of the desert, around 40 to 50 minutes from Abu Dhabi City.
The track is illuminated, so you can enjoy cycling in the early morning, around sunset, or at night. Beginners can choose the 8 km or 16 km routes, while more experienced cyclists can challenge themselves with the 20 km, 22 km, or full 30 km route.
You can bring your own bicycle, but if you do not have one, bicycles are also available for rent at LβOxygΓ¨ne beside the track. We asked the staff, and the rental was AED 50 per hour for adults. You can choose any available adult bicycle you like. For children, it was AED 35 per hour.
You do not have to be a professional cyclist to enjoy this place. Choose a distance that feels comfortable, wear a helmet and closed shoes, bring enough water, and enjoy the peaceful desert view.
We actually discovered this place by accident while stopping at ADNOC Oasis to buy some drinks and food. For now, I only took a few photos and videos, but I will definitely come back wearing my cycling outfit and arrive earlier so I can watch the sunset while riding.
And that will be my next adventure here. π΄ββοΈπ
