Muhayil (Arabic: محايل عسير) is a Saudi city and governorate belonging to the Asir Province. It is located in the southwest of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, about 80 km northwest of the city of Abha, the capital of the Asir Province. It is bordered on the north by Bariq Governorate, on the south by Rijal Alma’ Governorate, and on the east by the city of Abha, the headquarters of the Emirate of the Asir Province. And from the west, Al-Barak Governorate is one of the governorates in Asir Province, Saudi Arabia. At the 2022 census, the governorate had a total population of 230,537. Due to its warm winter climate, Muhayil is considered an important winter resort within Asir Province. While the higher-altitude settlements around Abha are considerably cooler in winter, Muhayil lies in a lower and warmer zone between the Asir highlands and the Tihamah coastal plain. The town is also a regional trade and service centre for numerous villages and settlements in western Asir.
