After four years of successful operations at XQuarry Off-Road & Adventure Park, the team is excited to announce the opening of their second venue, XQ Adventure, in Al Ain, Abu Dhabi. The new venue, set to launch in November 2024, will offer a fresh and unique set of experiences, exclusive to Al Ain.
While the core focus remains off-roading, XQ Adventure will differ from its Mleiha counterpart by emphasizing natural appearing off-road trails at the foot of Jebel Hafit, including several scenic wadi beds. XQuarry in Mleiha will continue to serve as the premier off-road training academy, with a variety of terrain and purpose-built obstacles for all levels of adventure seekers.
Adventure Meets Water Sports at Al Ain Adventure
XQ Adventure is a proud partner of Al Ain Adventure, the region’s only white water rafting facility that boasts a large surf pool, multiple other pools, and a wide array of water activities. With this collaboration, the focus is on creating immersive experiences that allow guests to stay for the entire day or even overnight, enjoying the diverse range of off-road, mountain, and water-based adventures. Whether you’re a resident or a tourist, it’s the perfect weekend getaway.
Exciting New Offerings for Adventure Enthusiasts
XQ Adventure will also introduce group camping with air-conditioned lodges, offering guests a chance to enjoy overnight stays in true adventure style. Future plans include a paintball area, additional thrilling activities, and even the possibility of exploring hidden caves.
The official opening is anticipated for early November 2024.
Daniel Birkhofer, Managing Partner, XQuarry remarked,“I’m incredibly excited to bring our off-road expertise to Al Ain Adventure. Partnering with their exceptional water sports facilities fills a gap we’ve always felt in Mleiha. There’s nothing better than wrapping up an adventure with a refreshing plunge into the water.”
Saoud Al Kaabi, Co-Founder:
“As a proud native of Al Ain, I’m thrilled to open our second venue here. We are dedicated to supporting Abu Dhabi’s initiative to make Al Ain a top tourist destination, not just in the UAE, but beyond.”
