04 · South Sinai
Climb the mountain of Moses and watch the sun rise over Sinai.
Sacred mountain × desert × sunrise
A night ascent under the stars, sunrise from the summit where tradition says Moses received the Law, and the ancient Monastery of St. Catherine at the foot of the mountain.
For faith travellers this is the heart of the journey. For everyone, it is one of the great sunrises on earth — the granite ranges of Sinai turning from violet to gold.
We arrange Bedouin guides for the climb, camels for the steeper stretch, and an unhurried morning at the monastery and the site of the Burning Bush.
Highlights
A guided night climb to the 2,285 m summit for first light.
One of the oldest working Christian monasteries in the world.
The site revered by Jews, Christians and Muslims alike.
Tea, bread from the fire and stories from the families of the mountain.
