RAS ABU GALUM |
Ras
Abu Galum |
The protected area of Ras Abu Galum, like the one in Nabq, is part of the programme to safeguard the territory enacted by the Ministry of the Environment . It has been joined to the Ras Mohammed National park
.
The zone of Ras Abu Galum is off the beaten track for tourists .
It’s a site of wild beauty, although it has only recently been appreciated for the up-keep of its environment and for the local Bedouin population, whose economy is almost excusively based on the fishing-industry.
Ras Abu Galum can be reached by taking the track which starts from the asphalt road seven km before Nuweiba, going down towards the sea through the Wadi Rasasa .
Here there is a reservoir and a Beduin village, and a four wheel drive vehicle is necessary . You can then reach Nuweiba from Ras Abu Galum along the track .
