Wadi Kadra
The 883rd longest river in the world
Wadi Kadra is a seasonal watercourse in the Hajar Mountains of Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates. The wadi runs parallel to the Maliha-Fujairah road (E84) from Sifuni to the Kadra dam adjacent exit 58 on that road. It was one of the first findsites of the rare damselfly Ischnura nursei. The 7.8km track is a popular hiking destination. Wadi Kadra is also notable for hosting the largest wild population of the rare and poisonous plant, Devil’s Thorn or Devil’s Trumpet Datura stramonium, in the UAE. Despite its wealth of flora and fauna, it is also home to a number of quarries and rock crushing operations.
