Ancient Mines of Bogma

The scenery on this hike is breathtaking and indescribably beautiful. You will be hiking through the desert like mountains of Sinai and seeing a completely different side of Egypt that you have never seen before.

At the end of January, we can expect moderate day hikes and cold nights. We will be communicating the expected temperature as we get closer to the trip date.

The Bedouins usually sleep under the stars. They call it the million-star hotel. We will be camping in the wilderness – by camping, we also mean that our water resource is minimal, so expect no showers, and nature calls are responded to in nature – no toilets. Every hiker should pack their tent and a warm sleeping bag that would be suitable for this trip, with a comfort temperature of 5 degrees. We also recommend using a sleeping bag liner or just wearing more warm layers while sleeping for people who still feel cold. Sleeping bags can be big, bulky, and weighty, so get the smallest, lightest model you can. Remember, the weather in Sinai at night is colder than what most people would expect, especially if they are not familiar with it.
