Sep 8, 2023Well organized excursion not for the unfit person as it’s 7km about 3-4 hours up the mountain ! Though the path is wide and gradual I managed the first 3 km before my knees gave up but there are camels all along the way that you can ride up to the last 750 steps to summit The sunrise was spectacular as were the views
