Skyline Trail Edition 3
Skyline Trail Edition 3 is a mountain trail hike held in Hatta. It is presented as the third edition and follows a rugged route with marked ascents and descents. The organiser describes the event as a sustained physical effort lasting several hours.
The route details include:
- 8.5 km rugged mountain route
- Optional 2 km extension loop
The course gains and loses around 500 m of elevation and has an expected continuous effort time of about 2.5 to 4 hours. Participants will encounter steep climbs, an exposed section called Striding Edge, a passage named Windy Pass, and the Skyline Ridge at 675 m. The descent passes the Hatta Sign and drops into Wadi Hub.
The trail is clearly signposted and offers scenic rest stops and photo points. Feed stations provide ice cold water and dried fruits. GPX route data will be available for use with GPS devices. All participants receive a limited edition commemorative T shirt and a medal; refreshments are included. Organisers note additional trail signs and an extra refreshment station on the long uphill section as changes introduced in 2025. A refund policy is stated by the organiser with time limits and possible fees. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
