For a few weeks each year, Aseer's jacaranda trees turn whole streets and hillsides purple. This is a weekend built around that — part cultural journey, part sensory celebration of a landscape at its most extraordinary.

Highlights

Walk streets lined with jacaranda — Experience the purple bloom that turns Aseer's highlands into something that has to be seen to be believed.

Flower workshop with local artisans — Discover the cultural significance of flowers in Aseer through hands-on craft with those who carry the tradition.

Cook over an open fire — A regional cooking workshop that grounds you in the flavours of the highlands before the journey begins in earnest.

Wander Rijal Almaa in bloom — The UNESCO stone village is extraordinary at any time of year. In season, it's unforgettable.

Honey tasting and heritage lunch — Local honey from a family producer, followed by lunch at Bab Al Turath — two tastes that belong to Aseer alone.

Dinner at the High City — Abha below you, the evening air cool and scented — a meal worth lingering over.
