Jebel Al Mebrah

[1] It is the highest mountain in the Emirate of Fujairah[3][4] and is part of a larger elevated massif, surrounded by steep slopes and other smaller peaks that exceed 1,400 m (4,600 ft) in altitude, delimiting the Water Divide Line between the drainage basin of Wadi Tawiyeen and Wadi Naqab.

[5][6] At the summit of Jabal Yibir there is a military installation, radars and communications antennas, and it is not accessible to the public.

After several years, the construction of a winding paved road from Al Tawiyeen / Aţ Ţawyēn[7][8] was completed in 2024, with sections of a 16% gradient, but with a modern layout, good surface and safety.

[7] The territory of Jabal Yibir was historically populated by the sharqiyin or sharquiyin tribe (Arabic: الشرقيون), mainly by the Hafaitat / Ḩufaitāt and Yammahi / Yamāmaḩah tribal sections.
