Jabel Hafeet is a mountain on the outskirts of Al Ain in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. The mountain is primarily located in the United Arab Emirates, but straddles part of the border with Oman. The Jebel
Hafeet Mountain Road extends for 7.3 mi (11.7 km) up the mountain, rising 4,000 ft (1,219 m) with 21 corners and three lanes (two climbing and one descending).

Parking space is available and can accommodate large equipment vehicles and cranes. There is no power supply, however, it’s recommended to provide external electricity generators.

There is a hotel located halfway to the top of the mountain, streets are narrow for filming and therefore, Police presence is required.
