Coloured Canyon, Sinai Peninsula

Egypt’s Coloured Canyon is, true to its name, a collection of brightly coloured and magnificently textured rock formations. With snaking layers of stone, its walls stretch some 40 metres high and make for quite the spectacle. Situated on the country’s Sinai peninsula, the canyon’s nearest settlement is Nuweiba, but it can also be accessed via day trips from Dahab and Sharm El Sheikh.
