Finding Serenity in Egypt's Sinai Trails
Egypt's Sinai can seem like an endless expanse of rugged mountains and desert, with its southern tip home to beach resort towns like Sharm El Sheikh and Dahab.
However, the rest of the peninsula, an area larger than Switzerland, remains less explored. This region holds great significance in Islam, Christianity, and Judaism.
The story of the Exodus begins with Moses fleeing to Sinai as a fugitive, where he encounters the Burning Bush through which God commands him to return to Egypt and free the Israelites from slavery.
Led by Bedouin guides, trekking through unmarked paths around Saint Catherine's Monastery offers a unique experience, with camping under the stars.
Sinai's rugged landscape, framed by the Mediterranean to the north and the Red Sea's two gulfs to the south, is a haven for adventure seekers.
