Wadi Shab (Wadi Ash Shab in Omani) is about 2 hours along the coastal route from Muscat. It's a place that is really for adventurous travellers.

My suggestion

The last past of the access to the Wadi is on foot. So, if you are leaving from Muscat you need to think about leaving early so you can make the most of it and avoid the stifling heat. Allow two hours by road from the capital.
