Hike Mount Sinai and visit Saint Catherine Monastery

You don’t need to be an expert hiker to join this trip, but you do need to be fit enough to hike mount Sinai for at least 5–6 hours. You will walk through a nice mountain path, and you will sometimes see breathtaking scenery and dramatic high mountains. Also, you could ride a camel for the trail part before the stairs.

Saint Catherine’s unique weather is due to its 1570-meter-high mountains and valleys. The best time to enjoy this trip is in spring and autumn when the daytime temperatures are lower and more pleasant for trekking (usually ranging from 15 to 27 °C). But we run a lot of other hikes during the winter and summer with prepared visitors. Winter nights and mornings can be really cold. Rains at this time of the year are very likely to happen. So it’s a key point to be prepared for cold weather and have waterproof layers because rain is expected too, but a good jacket and rented blankets from the top of the mountain are good for your safety. Accurate data is crucial for understanding the weather conditions as the trip date approaches. We will be able to gather information about the weather conditions that we are going to face. We’ve got to be well prepared for all conditions—the hot weather and the cold weather—with the right clothes and good equipment.
