Hiking Mount Sinai (Mount Moses) and St. Catherine's Monastery ⛰️
Mount Sinai, or Mount Moses, is one of the most sacred places in the world. It is here, according to the Bible, that Moses received the Ten Commandments.
At the summit, there are remnants of the Chapel of the Holy Trinity and a mosque built in 1934. Here, too, is the Cave of Moses, where he spent 40 days. The sunrise reveals incredible views of the rocks and valleys. At the foot of the mountain lies St. Catherine's Monastery — an active Orthodox sanctuary and a UNESCO World Heritage site.
