Come rock climbing in Dahab and the Sinai desert of Egypt!
Our main rock climbing season in Dahab is October to April. You can climb on dry granite rock all winter long and enjoy the winter sun. You’ll find sport climbing and bouldering in Dahab, and trad climbing in St Catherine. Ask us for a free pdf download of the Sinai Rock Climbing Guide!
Learn to rock climb in Dahab! From October to April, you can do any of our Try Climbs and Climbing Courses. Some courses are for complete beginners, others for novice climbers or indoor climbers who want to move to outdoor climbing.

At the top of Wadi Qnai, you will find an almost endless bouldering area. A brisk 45 min walk from top to bottom will take you past 9 sectors with +400 problems of every grade and variety.
Bouldering Trips
Boulderers love Dahab. Bir Wadi Qnai is just a 30 min drive from central Dahab, and you could spend a month in the wadi and not climb all there is to climb.
Dahab Bouldering Guide
The bouldering is so awesome, there’s even a dedicated Dahab bouldeirng guide. Check out excerpts from the guide on our bouldering page
Saint Catherine has a new pilgrimage these days – the trad climbers! We don’t guide trad, but we are happy to help with camping and logistics support
If you’re on your way to the Sinai, ask us for a copy of the Sinai Rock Climbing Guide. It’s available as free pdf download from dropbox or google docs, and it’s packed with topos, grades, route descriptions and general travel advice for climbers on their way to the Sinai.
I should also say that it’s been a real work of love over the years. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the Sinai Rock Climbing Guide – you’ll find photos of most of them in the guide!
