It is one of the villages in Al-Dir'iyyah Governorate of Riyadh Province, 35 km northwest of Riyadh City. One of the favorite destinations for desert and mountain hiking and outdoor activities is biking, road trip driving, sightseeing, picnics, and camping, especially during the weekend. It is expected to see bikers flocking the area during the morning on Fridays and Saturdays; the picturesque natural charm of the valleys and the distinctive formations of rocks, mountains, and valleys draw people to Al Amaariah.
You will find the famous Al Amaariah Clefts here; the hills of the mountain are cut architecturally to control the slope of the road crossing from one side to the other side of the mountain. The artistic cutting eventually became an attraction and made the place one of the most talk-about sites in Riyadh's province.
It has a number of state parks and one of the villages where beautiful resorts are located, from standard to the 5-star rated class. Riyadh province is a desert central region of the Kingdom, and so, among the attractions that draw people visiting are the farms in the nearby towns and villages of Riyadh City; Al Amaariah has them, too, from dates farms to vegetables and fruit farms.

standing – you can even call it treeless.
