This rises to a height of 2.980 meters and is famous for its wide plateau close to the summit. The journey from Muscat to Al Jabal Al Akhdar in A’Dakhiliyah Governorate takes about two hours and can only be undertaken by a fourwheel drive.
Al Jabal Al Akhdar is known for its Mediterranean climate. Temperatures drop during winter to below zero Celsius, with snow falling at times, and rise in summer to 22 degrees Celsius. Due to its location and unique weather, the Green Mountain produces a variety of fruits, such as apricots, plums, figs, grapes, apples and pears, as well as almonds, walnuts and saffron. The pomegranate that grows here is classified among the finest of its kind in the world.
Spread across the mountain are many Omani villages. Villagers have dug terraces in some parts of the mountain for growing crops.
