Wadi Bih – The UAE checkpoint is currently closed to everyone except UAE and Oman Nationals.
The UAE checkpoint in Wadi Bih (p.34, point 7) was closed to all traffic from the Ras Al Khaimah side in January 2008, and it is not possible for anyone other than UAE and Oman nationals to pass through the ‘border post’. It has been blocked to expatriates in the past, then reopened, but it is not known if and when this will happen. For now, it is still possible to enjoy this route, by starting it from the Dibba side (p.37), by which means you can still access Wadi Khab Al Shamis, the track up to the top of the pass, and even down into Wadi Bih - but you will have to backtrack out to Dibba. They are also constructing a border post in Dibba as well, but is not in operation yet. Again, it cannot be predicted if and when it will be closed off from this side as well.
