Gebel Uweynat - in the heart of the Libyan Desert
Gebel Uweynat A Hidden and magic mountain behind horizon
Gebel Uweynat is the highest mountain in the heart of the Libyan Desert. Some seventy years ago the mountain was newly discovered by the Egyptian explorer Ahmed Hassanein Pasha and was divided than into different political parts.
Now the Gebel Uweynat is located half in Sudan and the other half in Libya and only a very small portion resides in Egypt.
