Interesting topography makes canyoning particularly popular in Oman. This is not a sport for the timid and can often be challenging and treacherous. It involves using various techniques like walking, abseiling, swimming and scrambling, to ascend or descend a canyon. There are some awesome treks in the country including Wadi Shab and Snake Canyon each with its own individual challenge and beauty. Dress lightly and always expect to get wet.
