Absolutely beautiful and worth the drive! Please note – it is about a 3 to 4 Hour Dr. outside of Cairo. We stopped for lunch at a nice restaurant/hotel before heading to the desert national Park. In the park, you will see a waterfall plus large rock formations which you can climb and take beautiful pictures. You can also go sand snowboarding, which was fun.
