Jebel Shayib al Banat | mountain, nature preserve

Egypt / al-Bahhr-al-Ahhmar / Hurghada /
 mountain, nature preserve

Highest Montain of Egypt on African soil, 2187 m high, very nice to climb, takes you at least 3 days from Hurgada, no need for special equipment but water as there are no wells in late spring, especially after dry winters. With luck you can see different wild animals, e.g. ibex. Whole area is now a nature preserved area and controlled by local beduins.
