Oman hike through canyon

Here we are in Oman with my family. This day we went on a hike through this canyon and it eventually brings you to fresh water pools of water where you can swim and cliff jump. This is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen.

This is most of my family when we are just about to start the hike.


Look at that water! So beautiful.



People still live in the canyon. Their homes are just built right into the mountain side with stone. If you aren't looking you may not even notice because they blend in so well to the mountain side. They have little terraces where they grow things. This man is carrying some kind of grass to the bottom of the canyon, probably to feed his animals. The reason they live up here is because there is fresh water that flows through the canyon.

This is us swimming in at the end of the hike. The water was so cold, but you just had to get in because it was so beautiful.
