Why visit Khaybar from AlUla
Khaybar is a historic oasis south of AlUla. Its old fort stands on a dark basalt hill above palm groves and a quiet mud-brick old town, surrounded by the huge Harrat Khaybar lava fields. It gets far fewer visitors than AlUla, which is part of its appeal.
It is roughly 180 km from AlUla, about 2 hours each way, so it makes a comfortable day trip. There is no bus that fits a day visit, which is why most people go with a private car. See our Khaybar Fort transport guide for more on the site.

From April to October, go early. The fort has little shade and the rock holds heat by midday.
The path up to the fort is steep and rocky. Wear proper shoes and carry water.
