Quince- Jam making in the mountains- Gabal Abbas
Advertisement
Based on last years successful Safargel trip, we are heading back this year to gardens in Sinai to pick Quince fruits and make some jam.
This year we are heading to a different garden.
A Quince-Picking and Jam-Making Adventure in the Mountains.
(هنجمع سفرجل من الجبل و نعمل مربي)
Join us for a weekend escape to the mountains. Our goal is to enjoy the fresh air and stunning views while harvesting quince. We’ll look for the beautiful, fragrant trees, picking the ripe, golden fruit. The trip culminates in a fun cooking session back at our camping, where we’ll turn our quinces into homemade jam.
This is an easy level hike, suitable for beginners. Basic physical fitness level is required.
For those who are interested, we will manage to summit Gabal Abbas. Others, will stay, as planned, to make jam with bedweins.
Date: Thursday 12 November 06:00 pm to Saturday 14 November 11:00 pm.
