Taif – April 16, 2025
Nestled in the western mountains of Taif, specifically in the Al-Hada area, green orchards stretch out, home to one of the rarest and most delicious seasonal fruit trees in the Kingdom: wild mulberry trees, which have become a tourism icon drawing visitors from within the Kingdom and abroad, in a unique tourism and environmental experience.

A Fertile Environment and Natural Beauty

Al-Hada is known for its rich soil and temperate climate, making it an ideal environment for fruit trees to grow, chief among them mulberries, which spread densely across areas such as Wadi Muharram, Wadi Al-Nomour, Bilad Tuwairiq, Wadi Al-Safa, Al-Sharif and Al-Amaq.

A Destination for Hiking and Nature Lovers

These natural sites attract thousands of hiking enthusiasts to enjoy tours among the trees and pick fresh mulberries straight from the branches, adding a heritage-rich, vibrant character to the tourism experience.

Multiple Uses and Nutritional Value

Mulberries are no longer just a seasonal fruit; they have become an essential ingredient in:

  • Making natural juices and refreshing drinks.
  • Dessert and pastry recipes.
  • Products such as ice cream and concentrated syrup.

Many visitors have also begun purchasing mulberry saplings to plant in their homes, for their aesthetic appeal and nutritional benefit.

A Complete Rural and Tourism Destination

Al-Hada has become an ideal rural environmental destination that supports sustainable tourism and reinforces Taif's status as a hub for agricultural and tourism appeal, in a scene where natural heritage merges with agricultural modernity and contributes to the local economy through the marketing of mulberry products.
