Wadi Bani Awf
After renting a better car we are more free to choose off-road routes for our weekend trips. This Friday we went to Wadi Bani Awf, it is the area where there are Little Snake Canyon and Snake Canyon (the names come not from the numerous snakes but after the canyons' swinging shapes). We did not go hiking in the canyons but enjoyed some real off-road: we crossed many wadis and had a hand-shaking experiences of driving an unpaved road by the high mountain sides. It has been for sure one of the most difficult roads we have taken here in Oman (though, our off-road routes' book described the route as "easy driving" ;)). Yet, usually the scariest means the prettiest views and it was true!
