The 150-square-metre rink, which is part of the mountain’s viewing deck, overlooks the Hajar mountain chain in Oman.
Jebel Jais is typically around 10 degrees colder than the rest of the UAE, with temperatures at its top having dropped to as low as 2.7°C.

The outdoor activity is the latest in a series of attractions launched by the Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority (RAKTDA), which also launched the world’s longest zipline and the Middle East’s first via ferrata. The developments aim to boost RAK’s position as a family-friendly adventure destination.
