Summary

Discover Jais Viewing Deck Park atop Jebel Jais, Ras Al Khaimah’s highest peak, offering unparalleled views of the Hajar Mountains and Arabian Gulf. This premier UAE attraction caters to all, from adventure seekers on Jais Flight, the world’s longest zipline, to those enjoying sustainable amenities and breathtaking scenic overlooks.

Spend a day above sea level! Whether you’re an adventure seeker or looking to enjoy dramatic mountain views, Jais Viewing Deck Park has something for everyone.

 

Jebel Jais mountain peak is a proud natural staple in Ras Al Khaimah. The UAE’s highest peak draws residents and tourists throughout the year, and Jais Viewing Deck Park is the perfect spot to unwind or check something off your bucket list!

 

From sunrise to sunset, the park offers all-angle views of the Hajar Mountain range and the Arabian Gulf. Don’t forget to pack an extra layer! The temperature dips as you climb to the tallest point in the UAE. You may run into some of the mountain’s wildlife on your drive to the top. Jebel Jais is home to goats, camels, foxes, wildcats, and hundreds of bird species. Be sure to say hello to our friendly goat-greeters!

 

Up for a thrill? Jais Flight, the longest zipline in the world, carries adrenaline addicts 1,680 meters above sea level at mouth-gaping speeds. Once you take off, there’s no going back! Riders experience exhilarating heights and views, all in a matter of minutes. If thrills aren’t your thing, grab a bite from one of the park’s dedicated food trucks and watch your sensation-seeking friends from the viewing deck. Bring your camera to capture it all!

 

Here at the park, we’re all about the planet and sustainable development. We constructed our viewing deck with natural, locally-sourced materials to blend with the surrounding environment, and rely exclusively on solar energy for our lighting sources. We want to preserve the visual wonder of Jebel Jais for years to come!

 

No matter the time of year, Jais Viewing Deck Park is always worth the trip to the top. Get outside and see for yourself why Jebel Jais is one of the greatest attractions of Ras Al Khaimah!
