Saint Catherine's Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the world's oldest continually inhabited Christian monastery, is a deeply spiritual and historically rich destination at the foot of Mount Sinai in Egypt. While accessible by paved roads, typically via organized tours from Sharm el Sheikh or Dahab, individuals with significant mobility issues might find parts challenging due to steps and uneven terrain. Visitors can explore independently, but a guided tour is highly recommended for historical context, especially if combining with a sunrise hike up Mount Sinai. The monastery is open year-round, though summer months can be extremely hot, and winter nights are cold; checking specific visiting hours is advisable as they can change. While entrance to the main monastery is often free (donations welcome), there might be a small fee for the museum, with the primary cost being transportation and tour packages, typically ranging from $50-$150+. Allow 1-2 hours for the monastery visit alone, or an overnight trip if hiking Mount Sinai. Remember to dress modestly, covering shoulders and knees, and be aware of photography restrictions in certain areas.
