Trekking in Egypt: Ancient Nomad Trails

Trekking in Egypt's Ancient Nomad Trails in Sinai, from the coast of the Red Sea to the highlands of Saint Catherine City, was once home to nomadic tribes before they descended to the cities of South Sinai. This area is also where monks dispersed into the wilderness. It offers one of the most beautiful and wild trekking trails in Egypt. These trails provide incredible views of high peaks and dramatic valleys, with stunning scenery overlooking the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aqaba, and the Suez. The Ancient Nomad Trails of Sinai are among the best trekking destinations in Egypt’s wilderness, featuring hidden gems like Mount Um Shomar, Wadi Remhan, Wadi El-Rahaba, Mount Catherine, Mount Abbas, and Mount Sinai. These areas are not only beautiful but also of great historical and cultural significance to the Bedouins, both past and present. Trekkers will also experience wild camping in the Sinai wilderness, embracing the authentic Bedouin lifestyle-cooking over an open fire, sleeping under the stars, and learning about traditional herbal medicines, customs, and traditions-on this truly epic and challenging trek.
