Haj 2024, Saudi Arabia allows pilgrims to use e-scooters

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia‘s Royal Commission for Makkah city and Holy sites (RCMC) will allow pilgrims to use electric scooters during the Haj season 1445 AH-2024.

This service has been provided for the third consecutive year, following its trial launch during the Haj 1443 AH.

The initiative aims to improve the pilgrims’ experience by



offering a light, safe, and efficient mode of transportation during performing Haj rituals.

It also aims to shorten the travel time from Mount Arafat to Muzdalifah from 60 minutes to 15 minutes.

Three designated paths, each 1.2 kilometers long and 25 meters wide, are available for electric scooter use, providing ample space for safe travel.
