Morning light flakes across pale desert sand as horses shift and breathe, waiting at the edge of the coastal plain. A 2‑hour ride leaves the hotel strip behind and threads low dunes and compact tracks, sometimes skirting the Red Sea where wind-sculpted ridges give way to flat, salt-scented shoreline. Expect roughly 8–10 km of riding over mostly level terrain with short rises on dune crests (elevation change under 50 m), paced for riders of all levels on well‑trained desert breeds.
