Hessa Street, ridden and on the map

We rode the Hessa Street track on 28 Aug, Dubai Hills to Al Sufouh with both bridges open. It is now drawn on the map from that ride, dotted for the 1.4 km in Al Barsha that was still under works, and its guide has the photos stretch by stretch and a GPX to download.

Our ride photos also show in the map panel when you tap the track, and the Dubai Hills guide now covers the Umm Suqeim Street crossing, at the lights by the mall.

No adverts, and every guide under the map

The adverts are off across the map and every guide.

Scroll below the map for a short intro and every track guide, grouped by emirate.

Hessa Street gets a guide, Kite Beach joins Jumeirah

New guide: Hessa Street, the 13.5 km track from Al Sufouh to Dubai Hills. Kite Beach now shares one guide with the Jumeirah coastal track.

Also updated: Hatta's season 9 is open since 28 Sep, and the events guide has Dubai Ride 2026 registration, bib collection, timings and kit.

Official width and surface on the map

Tap a track and the panel now shows its width and surface from the RTA's own open data, wherever the RTA covers it. Six short official segments the map did not draw are on it now.

A new look

Cream pages and a paper map with canal blue lanes, on the same style as our Instagram.

Al Qudra, split into the RTA's routes

Al Qudra now shows the way the RTA signs it: Route 1 (49 km), Route 2 (18 km), Route 3 (28 km), Route 4 (22 km), Link 1 (11 km) and Link 2 (2.8 km), each its own line on the map.
