Sheikh Awad - Mt. Serbal Trek Trek (5 days) Starting in Sheikh Awad from the El KArm Ecolodge, this program leads to the oasis of Feiran along one of the oldest pilgrim routes, topped with spectacular views of the Gulf of Suez. Climbing Mt. Serbal from Wadi Rimm is easy, but descending on the other side to Naqb Shaharani is very steep and care has to be taken. It is recommended for fit people only. The trek ends in Wadi Feiran, the biggest oasis in South Sinai, at the Orthodox Nunery.
