Mountain climbing in Dubai is the biggest thrill for
tourists on Dubai adventure
tours. Though the city is not laden with mountains,
its limited hilly terrain surely presents a big allure
for climbers.
In Dubai, mountain climbing has been in practice since the 1970s. With the increasing global popularity of climbing, it has gained one of the top spots amongst most-loved sports in Dubai. Mountain climbers in Dubai have been chartering new terrains and pioneering new routes during their treks.
The opening of a Climbing Wall in the gym of Wafi Pyramids, a popular tourist attraction in Dubai, has led to an increase in public interest in the sport. Mountain climbing in Dubai is now not restricted to just professional or trained climbers.
The risks and inaccessibility quotients related to mountain climbing in Dubai have been almost wiped out now. People who never dreamt of climbing a mountain, now experience an almost similar thrill while climbing up this artificial wall.
A few other such climbing walls are under construction
in the city. The future of mountain climbing in Dubai
sure looks quite bright.
Do not try your hand at climbing if you suffer from Hypsiphobia (fear of height), or, are weak-hearted. Those who are willing to go mountain climbing in Dubai should take precautionary measures, and also check all their equipment before staring the climb.
 Dubai
has various institutes where professionals impart training
on mountain climbing on the payment of a minimal fee.
Most of these institutes also provide requisite equipment
on rent to tourists.
