Descrizione

Rock climbing in Egypt is in South Sinai, clustered around Dahab and St Catherine. It's perfect winter sun climbing from October to April on dry granite. Hundreds of trad routes in St Catherine, mainly long multi-pitch crack climbs, all grades. Sport climbing and excellent bouldering in Dahab. Sport routes up to french 7b. +400 bouldering problems of every level and variety inc projects. Plenty of new routing potential. Added bonus of climbing here is that there is world-class scuba diving and freediving in the Red Sea.

Limitazioni per l'accesso

Bedouin guide required in some areas, recommended in all. Very inexpensive, supports local people who have few other employment opportunities, and will massively enrich your stay here. Ask for a guide who works with climbers, in Dahab there are also some Bedouin climbing guides. They're great cooks and drivers, they have camels to get you to the more remote climbs, and you'll make friends for life.

Avvicinamento

Fly to Sharm El Sheikh, taxi to Dahab (1 hr) or St Catherine (2.5 hrs). Book taxi in advance, it will be cheaper and much less hassle.
