Guided by local bedouins, travelers hike up the rugged yet sacred terrain that was once tread by pilgrims and saints. Summiting at sunrise, it's more than a hike; it's a spiritual odyssey etched in the very fabric of St. Catherine's timeless mountains. Included in the hike is a visit to the ancient St. Catherine's Monastery, built in the 6th century, and the Chapel of the Burning Bush.
