Summiting Gabal Madsous - Advanced Level

We are summiting the challenging Gabal Madsous - advanced hiking level
Be ready for a lot of hiking and amazing views from the top and along the route.
Gabal Madsous panorama is one of the most beautiful yet challenging mountains in the Saint Catherine area. It is located in the remote western part of the Saint Catherine Mountains, in Gabaleyia tribe territory.
Madsous summit should be around 1800 to 1900m, the difficulty to summit is mainly that it does not have a clear trail to reach the summit,,, and it needs long hours of walking to reach the mountain itself, a complete day walking in and a complete day to walk out.
The mountain is remote, isolated and not visited frequently, which allows mountains goats and Ibex to settle.
Breathtaking view of the Red Sea from the summit and the whole range of St. Catherine mountains.
