Egypt Attractions
Description
Venue: Coloured Canyon When: Daily
Sinai's Coloured Canyon is around a kilometre long and full of magnificent rock formations. Formed by the elements over centuries, the walls cascade with colours and a natural maze has been formed that is excellent for exploring and taking photographs.
The rocks vary from sandstone to limestone and granite in yellow, purple, red and gold. The hike through the canyon is largely an easy one, though an average level of fitness is required.
A day trip to the canyon can easily be combined with a visit to Nuweiba or St Catherine's Monastery.
