Early light over the Sinai throws long, cool shadows across the desert as an air-conditioned minibus pulls away from Sharm El Sheikh, and the road ahead shrinks into a ribbon of dust. Within an hour the asphalt gives way to rocky tracks; the jeep’s suspension hums and the landscape takes on a sculpted silence. Colored Canyon arrives like a geological gallery—narrow slots of sandstone striped in ochre and rust where wind and flash-floods have carved channels that invite short, careful walks.
