If you’re a horse riding enthusiast, there’s some exciting news coming out of Hatta. Dubai Municipality has just opened a brand-new sand equestrian track, offering riders a unique way to explore this mesmerising region. Stretching over 2.5 kilometers, the track is surrounded by Hatta’s natural beauty.
The track has been built to international standards, ensuring that it meets the needs of riders at all levels. Whether you’re new to horseback riding or have been riding for years, you can enjoy the ride knowing you’re on a well-designed path that takes full advantage of the panoramic mountain views. The first phase of the project is now open.
You can hire horse on-site and explore the trails, or, if you’re a local, bring your own one and enjoy the ride. It’s the perfect way to unwind and enjoy the outdoors, while riding through some of Dubai’s most beautiful natural landscapes.
But the upgrades in Hatta don’t stop at the equestrian track. There are more developments underway, including new retail spaces, restaurants, and small businesses at Hatta Sustainable Waterfalls.

As Hatta continues to evolve into a key destination for both tourists and locals, there’s never been a better time to check out what this incredible area has to offer.
