Well me and my family are going out camping this weekend and we want to do an over land route from somwhere to somwhere off-road. We are thinking about from Sweihan to Madam and are wondering if this is a good cleen rout or if we will come accross lots of fencing and things like that? Dose anyone maybe have a route already maped out for this trip? Would love any help or advice!
Thanks

The idea is not bad but the max you will reach is to Al Hayer and the eastern border fence to Oman (close to Shweib). If you turn to north there you can only go along the fence to Madam.
The other option is from Sweihan to Nahel Town, crossing the highway there and going direction N/NE to Al Badaya (big red area) what needs to cross the tricky area 53 and some construction/sand pits.
In any case don't do it alone! The dificulty varies from intermediate to advanced. Not a piece of cake!
Good luck
