Jebel Jais Closes All Visitor Operations for Safety Inspections After Heavy Rains

Officials ordered the shutdown to let specialist teams inspect storm-affected areas.

Overview

  • Access roads are temporarily closed as crews conduct essential maintenance and safety checks.
  • All attractions and experiences, including the Jais Flight Zipline and 1484 by Puro, are suspended until further notice.
  • Heavy rainfall between December 17–19 left standing water and unstable terrain, creating slippery paths and shifting rocks.
  • Hiking and climbing routes are under assessment without a formal closure, and visitors are urged to avoid affected areas and not camp in wadis.
  • Reopening will be phased with area-by-area clearances and updates issued through official Jebel Jais channels, with operators stressing a safety-first approach.
