What to expect

Weather

Saint Catherine's unique weather is due to its 1600-meter-high mountains and valleys. We prefer to run this retreat and meditation in spring and autumn when the daytime temperatures are lower and more pleasant for being outside (usually ranging from 15 to 30 °C). But we run a lot of other retreats during the winter and summer with prepared friends. Winter nights can be really cold, but blankets and sleeping bags are provided for 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.

Accommodation

The Bedouins usually sleep under the stars. They call it the million-star hotel. In that retreat we will camp some nights in the wild gardens equipped with Rocky rooms by the Bedouins; some of them contain mattresses and blankets, and sometimes we will camp in the mountains way through the pristine Sinai Trail. You will learn basic camping skills and how to set up a tent. Everyone should have a tent and a sleeping bag suitable for all seasons to ensure that there is enough space to make you all feel comfortable. A 3- or 4-season sleeping bag (depending on the time of year) will be enough to make your experience in the retreat safe and comfortable.

Hiking

You don’t need to be a hiker to join this retreat and meditation, if you want you can hike for a couple of hours alone and in silence. With yourself, you just need to be fit enough to hike in Sinai weather. You could walk through the amazing boulder-strewn wadis, dramatic switchbacks sometimes, and through rocky trails or green valleys. However, each day will just keep you motivated for the next with the great retreat, meditation, and breathtaking scenery.

Food

You will have three extremely delicious bedouin meals cooked up the wood fire all the trip, and you can also help in their preparation if you want to. Breakfast is usually eggs, cheese, beans, honey, and jam; lunch is on the lighter side with salad, grilled eggplant, tuna salad, mashed potatoes, and white cheese; and dinner is the amazing cuisine of bedouins, which is soup, pasta, rice, lentils, vegetables, meat, or chicken slow-cooked on charcoal or on the fire with some fruit.
