Coloured Canyon: This canyon is in the middle of the desert mountains by Nuweiba. It is where the water has gorged a path over thousands of years into the rock opening up all the different coloured layers. The canyon is very narrow in places and good shoes and reasonable fitness is required, as well as loads of water, as the walk will take you a few hours. A full day trip will cost you about £40.

See the Tour Companies section for prices and who offers what
Notes:
  • There are no facilities out there, it is the desert! , if you need something then bring it. If you don't want to pee behind a rock then go before you go.
  • Some of the passages between the rocks are small and need a level of physical fitness.
