Suggested walks for planning, not turn-by-turn routes: times and distances are approximate, so choose your stops and check opening hours.
Abu Sir ridge trail
About an hour and a half · About 2.5 km
From the Temple of Osiris to the Tower of Abu Sir, then east along the ridge to Kom el-Nugus. The archaeological zone is not yet formally open to visitors, so check before you go.
Transport
The Matrouh line’s stations at Bahig, Borg El Arab and El Gharbaniyat, the high-speed train and service-taxi fares: in the transport guide, every entry with its source.
