Getting there

Walking

If you are in the center of Sohar, start at the Sohar Fort. Head east on Al-Ma’aref Street towards the intersection with Al-Hamra Street. Continue walking straight until you reach the roundabout. At the roundabout, take the second exit onto Al-Batinah Highway (Route 1). Walk along the highway, keeping an eye out for local shops and eateries along the way. After about 1.5 km, look for a small road on your left leading towards the park. Follow this road, and you will see سيح المكارم ahead after approximately 300 meters. The area is well-marked and should be easy to spot.

Public Bus

From the main bus station in Sohar, take bus number 10 heading towards the Al-Batinah Highway. Inform the driver that you want to get off at the سيح المكارم stop. The journey takes about 15-20 minutes depending on traffic. Once you get off, walk towards the park entrance, which is just a short walk away from the bus stop.

Bicycle

If you have access to a bicycle, start from the Sohar Corniche and head north towards the Al-Batinah Highway. Once you reach the highway, turn left and cycle towards the direction of the park. It is a straight route and should take about 15-20 minutes. Make sure to wear a helmet and stay safe on the road.
