Asir National Park

Reviewed By saqib88 - Taif, Saudi Arabia

If you are a nature/scenery lover then this is one place you simply MUST visit if you're ever in Saudi Arabia and more specifically, in the city of Abha. The views from here were absolutely breathtaking. You feel like you are literally in the clouds and the air was so fresh and pure. I would strongly recommend visiting this park. You could end up doing a lot of walking here so make sure you wear some comfortable footwear! P.S I would also recommend you visit in the Spring/Summer and NOT in the Winter as I did because when I went, it was like a scene from a horror movie with the quietness and the fog LOL.

Abha Dam Lake

Reviewed By saqib88 - Taif, Saudi Arabia

Damn! I would have never thought I'd see a dam in Saudi Arabia lol! This was a beautiful place with some very nice views and I am glad I took the time out to go visit. It's probably one of the highlights of Abha and definitely worth seeing if you haven't yet. Very quiet and peaceful place.

Cable Car

Reviewed By ioea5

It's Al Souda, Soodah, Soda...regardless of the spelling, it's the cable car excursion that you just have to do if you visit Assir province! It's about 20 minutes from Abha city area, and may be hard to catch an uber out there, but well worth it. There are a few cable car locations in the area, so make sure you have the right one. This is the best (disclaimer: it was the only one I tried). It's 80 SAR per adult, and runs 1pm-5 or 6pm. The ride is about 20min each way in the cable car. The views are spectacular (as long as you're not scared of heights). Being suspended over the gorges and the rocks and coming over the mountain was beautiful and serene. The cars are enough to fit 6-8 adults, but if you want to be able to move around to get 360 views, 2-4 people is best. At the bottom, there wasn't much to do though. Just a snack stand, some picnic tables, and more views of the valley town below and the mountain you just descended from. It was a Friday early afternoon, so nothing was open down below. We rode back up, and it was a nice little trip on my last day in Abha. Our cab was waiting, so we made it down the mountain, took some pictures, and back up in one hour flat. If more was open, we would have ventured into town which would have taken more time.
