Majestic Mountain Views: A Hiker's Paradise

Getting There

• Walking

  Start your journey at the Prophet's Mosque (Al-Masjid an-Nabawi), the central landmark in Medina. Exit the mosque and head east on King Abdulaziz Road. Continue walking for about 1.5 kilometers until you reach the intersection with Prince Mohammed Bin Abdulaziz Road (also known as the Northern Ring Road). Cross the road and continue straight. You should see signs pointing towards Wadi Jinn. Follow these signs for another 1.5 kilometers. As you approach Wadi Jinn, look for local landmarks such as the Al-Maqam Al-Ibrahimi. Once you reach Wadi Jinn, you will find Walking View Mountain at the coordinates PCGP+QP. It's a popular spot, so you should see other tourists and locals heading in that direction.

• Public Transport (Bus)

  From the Prophet's Mosque (Al-Masjid an-Nabawi), walk to the nearest bus stop located on King Abdulaziz Road. Look for buses heading towards Wadi Jinn. Board any bus that indicates it will stop at Wadi Jinn. The bus ride should take approximately 20 minutes. Once you arrive at Wadi Jinn, disembark and head towards the direction specified by the local signage for Walking View Mountain. It is a short walk from the bus stop to the mountain.

• Taxi or Ride-Sharing

  If you prefer not to walk or take the bus, you can opt for a taxi or a ride-sharing service from anywhere in Medina. Simply provide the driver with the destination address: PCGP+QP, Wadi Jinn. The ride should take around 15 minutes depending on traffic conditions. Once you arrive, you can easily spot Walking View Mountain, which is a well-known local attraction.
