If you don't have a 4 wheel drive you need to park you car at the designated spots and book an experienced tour driver take you up. You must observe all of the well signed rules and cautions on each stage of the journey they are there for a reason. The views are stunning but you must stop only at the purpose made viewing platforms to take pictures to you will put yourself and others in danger. The mountains are not actually really green so don't be disappointed, the real attraction is the cooler weather as you go up, the thrill of the rollercoaster drive and the amazing views, there are a number of cafes and coffee shops on the way but they are not really special and are poorly maintained which is strange as this is one of Oman's main tourist sites. needs improvement.
