Trojena

Trojena (Arabic: تروجينا) is a mountain tourism destination under construction in Neom, Tabuk Province, Saudi Arabia. Trojena is one of the various announced regions of NEOM and will be located 50 km (31 mi) from the Gulf of Aqaba, covering a total area of 60 km2 (23 sq mi) with an elevation ranging from 1,500–2,600 m (4,900–8,500 ft) above sea level. The tourism destination is part of Saudi Vision 2030 and when announced in 2022 was set to be completed by 2027. A 2023 review of the project found that costs had surged by over $10 billion, leading the project to fall below the internal rate of return. An internal audit found evidence of financial manipulation to justify the cost overruns and obfuscate problems related to the project. In 2026, the 2029 Asian Winter Games were moved from Trojena to Almaty, Kazakhstan, and several key contracts for Trojena construction, including the dam and the supply of structural steel, were cancelled.
