We will hike in the mountainous area behind Abu-Zenima, in Sarabeet. Almost 30 KM walking distance over 2 days.
Medium level hike.
Journey into the heart of Um-Bogma, an abandoned mining village where time has stood still. Rich in turquoise, copper, and manganese since the era of the Pharaohs, this site remains a silent witness to history. From the hollowed-out hospital and mosque to the dormant machinery of the worksites, the entire town feels like a living ghost story—left exactly as it was the day the engines stopped
