salted reeds

The Salted Reeds in Al-Qasab, Riyadh region, span a wide area near the western Nafud desert. Extending eastward toward the road connecting Riyadh to Al-Qasab, this striking natural landmark is known for its salt formations, flat terrain, and shimmering patterns created by mineral deposits and shallow water pools — forming a stunning natural salt flat surrounded by fertile farmlands.

Historically, the region played an important economic role, as the soil’s quality enabled farmers to cultivate wheat and other crops, particularly after rainfall seasons. Over time, the Salted Reeds became not only a source of agricultural prosperity but also a geological wonder that reflects the balance between nature and heritage in the heart of Saudi Arabia.

Today, this unique site continues to attract nature lovers, photographers, and explorers seeking to witness its surreal white landscapes that change hues with sunlight and weather conditions.
