Timna Valley

Why go

Mining shafts, ritual remains and bold desert shapes give both human and geological reasons to make the drive. Look for solomon's Pillars rise from a red sandstone cliff, then smelting camps trace copper production across millennia. The valley is large and exposed; use a vehicle circuit, carry water and avoid the hottest hours.
