The Black Mountain in Al-Raith Governorate is a breathtaking natural wonder that has captivated visitors from near and far. This majestic peak, located about 124 kilometers northeast of Jazan city, rises over 3,000 feet, its summit shrouded in a lush canopy of juniper trees and other perennial plants. The mountain's unique shape, with its peaks and slopes forming an arc, casts dramatic shadows during sunrise and sunset, lending it the name 'Black Mountain.' This verdant giant offers more than just stunning vistas. Local ingenuity has transformed its slopes into terraced farms, showcasing the region's rich agricultural heritage. The abundance of Sidr, Samr, Talh, and Marar trees has made the area a beekeeper's paradise, producing renowned white Majra honey. A visit to Black Mountain is an escape into tranquility. Surrounded by nature's splendour, visitors can relax, rejuvenate, and immerse themselves in the beauty of this extraordinary landscape. Source: Saudi Press Agency
