As-Sab' Al-Milaf, the Old Hajj Road
Pilgrims once travelled this way from Al-Yamamah to Makkah, and Sadus was one of the notable stops on the road.
Shajarat Al-Hajj
A tree whose name Sadus has never forgotten: Shajarat Al-Hajj, the pilgrim's tree. Its name recalls the pilgrim roads that passed the town, and its shade invites you to stop.
Jabal Fahrain
One of the mountains of Sadus, in a landscape framed by the Tuwaiq escarpment to the west and the twin Abkain hills to the east: a place where the view opens up and the pace slows down.
Darb Abkain
The main road between Sadus and Al-Uyaynah, passing the two small hills that Al-Hamdani described in the fourth century AH: the Abkain.
Dahl Ibn Rashid
An opening in the ground that leads into darkness and silence: one of the dahls of Sadus, known as Dahl Ibn Rashid.
Shaib Al-Luhaysiyah
Beyond the village walls lies the world of the ravines: Shaib Al-Luhaysiyah National Park, a destination for walks and seasonal outings.
Dahl Al-Rakzah
Where Wadi Watr branches above Sadus begins Al-Rakzah, the tributary on which the Sadus dam was built to hold water and protect the farms.
Darb Habudal
An old track running through Shaib Al-Darb, a tributary of Aba Al-Hasak: one of the ways that tied Sadus to its neighbours long before asphalt.
Darb Aba Al-Ghubtan
One of the old tracks around Sadus, its name kept by the town among its landmarks: an invitation to walk where others walked before you.
The Trade Routes
Before Islam and after it, trade caravans and pilgrim roads passed through Sadus. In 2020 the riders of an international cycling race set off from here towards Riyadh.
