In December 2016, after 200km walking, five gruelling mountain peaks, and 12 days in the desert the first ever group to attempt walking the whole Sinai Trail finished in St Katherine. In the group were 22 hikers from all over the world: from the UK to Jordan, the USA to Spain, and Italy to New Zealand and of course, Egypt itself. The group braved everything from blisters to midnight rainstorms and subzero temperatures to etch their names in Egypt’s hiking history and make a group of lifelong friends with the other hikers and the Bedouin guides. Congratulations to all of the hikers and the Bedouin team that helped them along the way!
