The harsh climate of Sinai demanded from the indigenous inhabitants of endurance and great adaptability. Grueling summer heat gives way to winter chilling cold. If in summer the stones are heated to 50—60 degrees, in winter the temperature drops to minus 2—3 degrees Celsius, and can even snow. It is widely believed that mount Sinai is completely devoid of water and therefore little wildlife. This is not so. High in the mountains you can find the whole of the lake of rain water and even waterfalls. One of them is the waterfall of Ashuk is within the vicinity of Dahab.

From the reservoir a system of rubber pipes allows you to hold precious moisture almost to the housing.
