Описание: Scenic Bandar Khairan Hike | 06-Feb-2026 | #6 of 2026

What a beautiful Friday morning it was at Bandar Khairan — one of Muscat’s most scenic coastal trails, offering spectacular sea views from the mountains 🌊⛰️

Last month, 50 Adventure Buddies successfully completed the challenging *Persian Steps – Season 5*, and to celebrate this achievement and distribute certificates, this scenic hike was the perfect choice.

We had 58 buddies showing up at 6:10 am — proof that the charm of this trail is truly hard to resist! The hike is easy and family-friendly, and it was heartwarming to see many kids joining in, full of energy and excitement 😊👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

We started a little later than planned, timing our climb to reach the ridge just around sunrise — and most of us made it! 🌅 The sight of the sun rising over the ocean was simply breathtaking. Cameras clicked nonstop as everyone soaked in the golden views 📸✨

After spending about *25 minutes*, our next stop was the rocky beach below, where we took a refreshing break. The sound of waves crashing against the rocks was pure bliss 🌊🎶

We spent around 20 minutes there, and honestly, it was hard to pull buddies away to continue the return route!

For the return, we climbed a rocky hill with a cliff offering stunning sea views*. From there, it was almost a steady and relaxed walk back. We completed the entire trail in *1 hour 50 minutes.

The buddies had planned a lovely potluck breakfast*, bringing a delicious spread including *Idli, Vada, Sambar, Chutney, Kachori, Samosa, Poha, Chivda, Fruit Punch, Tea, Jalebi, Sweets, and the list just went on 😋☕🍰

The celebrations continued as we marked the success of Persian Steps – Season 5 🎉
A special cake was cut 🎂 and certificates were distributed to all participants — a proud and memorable moment for everyone.

Awesome day indeed! 🙌✨
