Default Treking/Camping Trails in Dubai

Hi,

I have been in Dubai for 6 months now and find the place rather boring in the outdoor front. Even though there are many happening events (Tennis, Dubai Horse Race, etc.) but for the adventure seeking there is very little to do. So if anyone knows of some nice place to trek/camp please do let me know. If you are a adventure seeking person like me feel free to mail me about your latest adventures. I am also planning to start a adventure club (what do you think?) for people who love the outdoors so we can share info and if possible organize some trips together.

Thx,
Ram

Adventure club sounds great...can it include children? Can I send them on their own

Only kidding, have been here a year and have not explored anywhere, would like to but it has to be kiddie friendly and tame for me. That means not eating local wildlife or sleeping with creepy crawlies. You can see why we haven't been out much LOL

Thx for ur feedback.
Yes children are included ...its a club for the entire family. Now to answer your second question about food. As a regular outdoor person I have never eaten any local wildlife or slept in bug infested areas because we always carry food and proper camping equipment which include tents, sleeping bags etc. So nothing to worry.
