Moses Mountain and Saint Catherine Monastery

Follow the steps of Moses and enjoy a trip to Gebel Mousa and St.Catherine Monastery from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh. Take on a spiritual journey to the place of the burning bush!

Take this evening trip from Sharm El Sheikh to Moses Mountain where you will meet with our Bedouin group leader who  will show you the way to climb up the mountain to reach the same place where Prophet Moses received the Ten Commandments from God.

The view from the summit is truly breathtaking and well worth the effort of ascending in the early morning. After watching the sun rise, we will climb down to rest and have breakfast in the city of St.Cathrine. We will then visit the monastery where our guide will introduce you to one of the oldest monastery in the world. You will then have some free time to walk around and take photos,then drive back to Sharm El Sheikh

• There are two ways to get to the top of the mountain, Camel Road and Monks Trail.
• Camel is 7 km long and it is easier and most often climbed by tourists.
• Monks Trail – consists of 3750 steps carved into the mountain, This trail is more complex and dangerous.
• Air at the foot of the mountain is weak. This can cause asthma issues so be cautious.
• The village and the monastery of St. Catherine is at a height of 1700 meters above sea level and the top of the mountain is 2285 meters above sea.
• On the mountain is always cold. During the winter months there is lots of snow and frost.
• Climbing takes about 3-4 hours.
• The most difficult part of the climb is the last 752 steps leading to the panoramic platform and to the chapel.
• Along the way you can stay in small cafes and drink Bedouin tea.
• From the mountain you will go down at about 7 – 8 am. The monastery opens at 9:30 and you can wait in a cafe in the village.
