Sawda Mountain

Sawda Mountain

Overview:

• It is one of the most beautiful landmarks of Abha that you can see, so that it is classified as one of the most important tourist attractions in Abha and the Kingdom as a whole, thanks to its high altitude, which exceeds 3 km, or about 9,843 feet, which makes it the tallest Saudi mountain at all.

• In addition to the Arar trees that cover it and give it a distinct appearance, and despite the dense clouds that appear as the foam of a raging sea covering everything below, the mountain provides an unparalleled panoramic view of the charming city of Abha.

Reason of naming:

• The reason of naming this mountain is still a mystery until now, as it is considered a mystery, but locals believe that the name came from the dark arbor trees that grow throughout the mountain in addition to the dark clouds looming over it.
