The ultimate off-roading haven you’ve been dreaming of just arrived. Here you have vast open spaces in the hard terrain of AlMleiha desert to explore. Expect many many rocks and a mud pit!
There are terrains at XQuarry Park that suit every skill level, so don’t sweat it if you’re a beginner. And there are even training courses you can take to learn how to do it safely. All you have to do is bring your car along.
Whether you’re into it on your own or, better yet, with a group of family or friends, it’s guaranteed fun. There are future plans for the possibility to rent a 4x4a coming soon.
Here are the types of vehicles allowed inside the park:
- 4x4s that are road registered
- Modified 4x4s, but they have to be in a good condition and they will be tested first on site
- UTVs with a roll cage.
2. Running Obstacle Course
Fitness enthusiasts will adore this one for sure. This obstacle course will not go easy on you! Prepare to get rough; you will have to get through it by climbing, jumping, crawling, and swinging! You could get wet too.
So, make sure you have the proper attire on, and it’s recommended to wear some gloves to avoid getting hurt.
3. Cycling Trail
Bring along your bike and take on this 3-km MTB track with your friends. Be prepared for some interesting obstacles and steep curves. Let’s see who will be the winner!

There are several hiking trails available within the park to take on with a distance that’s just above 12 km. For beginners or families with kids, some trails are just 3 km to get you started.
Don’t forget to take amazing photos! Advanced hikes take you to the top of cliffs and offer breathtaking panoramic views of the desert.

Do you own your own RC car? If you do and would like to test it out in the great outdoors, this is definitely the place for it. Bring it along and control it in this custom-built 500 m RC track with obstacles and revel the excitement!
