Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
his Khareef adventure takes you beyond typical sightseeing into three of Dhofar’s most beautiful natural spring locations—each offering a different face of Oman’s seasonal transformation.
You will explore the hidden beauty of Ain Athum, where flowing freshwater and green mountain surroundings create a peaceful escape during the Khareef season. Continue to Ain Tabrq, a quiet and lesser-known spring nestled deep in the mountains, offering untouched scenery and complete tranquility away from the crowds. The journey also includes Ain Humran, a refreshing natural spring surrounded by lush landscapes and cool mist, perfect for relaxing and photography.
What makes this experience special is the combination of three natural springs in one journey, each with its own atmosphere—lush greenery, seasonal waterfalls, and authentic mountain life. Unlike standard tours, this route offers a true off-the-beaten-path Khareef experience, blending nature, adventure.

What To Expect
Ain Tabrq is a hidden natural spring located in the mountains of Dhofar, offering a peaceful escape into untouched nature. During the Khareef (monsoon) season, the surrounding landscape transforms into lush greenery, with seasonal water flowing through rocky terrain and quiet mountain valleys. This secluded location provides a true off-the-beaten-path experience, far from crowded tourist areas. It is an ideal stop for travelers seeking natural beauty, calm surroundings, and authentic mountain scenery.
Ain Athum is a natural spring area in the mountains of Dhofar that transforms into a scenic seasonal waterfall location during the Khareef (monsoon) season. When the rains arrive, the area comes alive with flowing water cascading through rocky terrain, surrounded by lush green landscapes and misty mountain views. The result is a refreshing and peaceful natural setting, often referred to locally as the Ain Athum Waterfalls.

Wadi Darbat on a rainy day

5.00We had an amazing experience with the Wadi Darbat tour. It was a rainy day so the scenery was unreal. The main waterfall was quite crowded but definitely a must see. Watch your step! We found a secluded spot just off to the side and the serenity was really unmatched. I highly recommend this tour and company and consider yourself lucky if Saleh is your guide because he is a wonderful person who is accommodating and full of knowledge. Enjoy!
