Mt. Tzafachot, Mountain summit in Southern District, Israel.
Mount Tzfachot rises from the desert landscape, reaching a height that provides clear views across the Israeli and Egyptian borders.
The mountain has stood as a natural marker along ancient trade routes between Egypt and the Levant for thousands of years.
Local Bedouin communities maintain traditional knowledge about the mountain's paths and natural water sources through generations of oral history.
Visitors need to carry at least 3 liters of water per person when hiking Mount Tzfachot, as the desert climate remains hot throughout the year.
The mountain's geological composition includes rare mineral formations that create distinct color patterns visible during sunrise and sunset hours.
