The Jais Sledder, Ras Al Khaimah’s much-loved mountain ride, has been temporarily closed, leaving visitors eager for updates. Known for offering adrenaline-packed descents at speeds of up to 40kmph, the attraction has been out of operation for over a week, according to a representative from Jais Adventure Park.
While the exact reason for the closure remains unspecified, call center staff have suggested that routine maintenance may be underway. A notice on the park’s official website confirms the temporary closure, with a message of thanks for visitors’ patience.
Nestled in the scenic adventure hub of Jebel Jais, the highest peak in the UAE, the Jais Sledder has drawn thrill-seekers since its launch in 2022. Riders enjoy an exhilarating journey down the rugged Hajjar mountain slopes, all while soaking in breathtaking views of the terrain and coastline. Tickets are priced at AED 50 for adults, with a joint ticket for an adult and child available for AED 65.
The Jais Adventure Park, home to this record-breaking toboggan ride, offers a host of other activities for nature and adventure enthusiasts. Visitors can hike scenic trails or experience the world’s longest zipline, which also shares the stunning mountain backdrop.
For now, fans of the Jais Sledder will need to wait for updates on its reopening. Its Google listing and website currently mark the ride as “temporarily closed.” Visitors planning their trip are encouraged to stay tuned for announcements.
