Wadi Degla

Walking in Wadi Degla you can hear the silence; it has volume and weighs down on you, but in a totally positive way. You seem to drown in a pool of calmness and certainty seems like a second nature to you for a while. You are no longer in your wired existence (mobile and laptop). You just exist in a breathtakingly beautiful desert.

Wadi Degla is a 12km-long canyon that became a national park in 1999. It’s also a rustic natural area where people come to hike, bike and picnic on weekends.
