Discover South Sinai
Mount Catherine and Jabal Mūsá place this destination in southern Sinai, separate from the Nile Valley and Egypt's broad western desert. The named high points belong to a compact mountain region on the peninsula, with rugged relief within an overwhelmingly arid national setting.
Sinai forms the land connection between Africa and southwestern Asia. Its southern mountains belong to a desert climate with hot, dry summers and more moderate winters, contrasting geographically with the Nile's narrow cultivated corridor and the extensive plains of western Egypt.
