Winter is one of the prettiest times to hike the Sinai Trail & a small group of hikers recently followed the trail into the highlands of St Katherine, visiting Jebel Abbas Basha - on whose summit an old Ottoman palace stands - & its surrounding wadis. Winters can be cold in the highlands - sometimes so cold water bottles freeze overnight! - but there's a good network of shelters on the Sinai Trail & hikers are accompanied by the Sinai's finest guides. The Sinai Trail is open for weekend trips & we'll be running our first thru hike since the beginning of the pandemic soon. It'll be a 24 day event divided into two 12 day parts with the first starting 15 Feb & the second 27 Feb. Part one is sold out but we have places on part 2 so check Sinai Trail: Thru Hike 2022: Thru Hike 2022 & message ASAP to join one of the greatest journeys in the world ⭐
