Wadi Al Jinn (Baida) - Madinah Province

4.8Reviews

Description

Located in Al Baida, Wadi al Jinn is one of the strangest and most fascinating valleys in Saudi Arabia. Situated around 24 Km northwest of Madinah, this valley is truly a mysterious place. On your way to the valley, you will reach a point where you can put your car in neutral, and it will start moving uphill. The car slowly picks up speed and can go up to 120km/h while going uphill for about 12-13 km. 

There are tons of theories as to why the car moves uphill without any apparent external force. Some suggest that the valley is inhabited by supernatural beings called Jins; others try to explain it through science and suggest that it is merely an optical illusion. 

Attractions

The valley itself attracts a lot of tourists. Some tourists set up tents and stay here for a few days. One of the biggest attractions here is quad biking. People love speeding through the dusty tracks on their quad bikes. Many people who are interested in astronomy also come here for star gazing as it provides great views of the stars after nightfall. Moreover, the peaceful and fresh atmosphere of the valley is second to none, which is why many families come here to have picnics on the weekends.

It is a mountainous area about 30 kilo North to Madinah. In some places the roads have upwards and downwards slopes, in certain areas the car moved much faster comparing to the downwards slope of the road. We found 110 kilometer per hour speed in neutral mode while coming back to Madinah. The car was in its 30s, gradually increasing in speed over a minute. If the driver didn't use the brake, it could reach higher speed than 110kmph and there could've been an accident.
