Khalifa Al Ghafri, a young Emirati adventurer, achieved a breathtaking feat by wingsuit flying from the summit of Jebel Jais, the UAE’s highest peak. Al Ghafri was joined by adventurers from Argentina, Romania, and South Africa, making it an international spectacle of courage and skill.
Jebel Jais, located in Ras Al Khaimah, stands at an imposing 1,900 meters above sea level. Renowned for its stunning views and rugged terrain, the mountain is a favorite destination for thrill-seekers and nature enthusiasts alike. The mountain’s proximity to the Arabian Gulf adds to its allure, offering picturesque views of palm groves and coastal vistas. Only a narrow six-kilometer strip separates the mountain from the sea, making it a unique geographical wonder. Over the years, Jebel Jais has gained recognition as a hub for adventure sports. From the world’s longest zipline to mountain biking trails, the peak attracts visitors from around the globe. ICA/Expat Media
