About Al-Qarah Mountain and its history
A hill in Al-Ahsa known for caves that stay cool in summer.
The Dhofar Mountains (Arabic: جِبَال ظُفَار, romanized: Jibāl Ẓufār) are a mountain range in the southeastern part of the Arabian Peninsula. In a broad sense, they extend from Dhofar Governorate in Oman to Hadhramaut Governorate in Yemen, and are located between the Hajar in the northern part of Oman, and the Sarawat in the western part of Yemen. Otherwise, the range in the eastern part of Yemen, particularly near Mukalla, is referred to as the Hadhramaut or "Mahrat".
Geology
The Dhofar Mountains consist of three subranges: Jabal al-Qarā (Arabic: جبل القرا), Jabal al-Qamar (Arabic: جبل القمر) and Jabal Samḥān (Arabic: جبل سمحان). The latter is the highest point at about 2,100 m (6,900 ft).
Wildlife
The Arabian leopard thrives here, particularly in Jabal Samhan Nature Reserve.
These mountains are home to Oman's largest population of Nubian ibex.
The Asiatic cheetah used to occur in this region. Oman's last known cheetah was killed near Jibjat in 1977 (Harrison, 1983).
In December 2018, a Schokari sand racer was spotted in a mountain in this region.
