Yes, there are walking and hiking trails and trips in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Saudi Hiking Trails Association 'Darb' is responsible for identifying and approving walking and hiking trails, serving various society groups across the provinces of the Kingdom. Darb delineates trails in different provinces, conducts studies and assesses their potential for development, and finds, approves, and develops hiking trails.

Licensed by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development and overseen by the Ministry of Tourism, Darb has developed notable trails such as the Jalajil Historical Trail, Mussaigrah Hiking Trail, and Darb al-Manjour Trail project.

Additionally, the Saudi Climbing and Hiking Federation supervises rock climbing and hiking activities, sets regulations for hiking and climbing sports, and licenses hiking guides, climbing instructors, and trip organizers.
