Eilat Mountains Nature Reserve

Attraction Type: 
off-beat

A wide expanse of rocky landscape with wild gazelles roaming freely, the area is criss-crossed with hiking trails. One of the most popular ones goes through the Red Canyon, which gets its name from the reddish colour of the sheer rock faces. You can also enjoy a long camel ride into the nature reserve (provided by Nachal Shlomo Camel Ranch) which takes you to a lookout point where you can see four countries (Israel, Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia) on a clear day.
