Many years ago (10 +?) I did some climbing out that way, went with a ‘local’ expat - when we walked back towards town we had guns pointed at us at a checkpoint, they weren’t happy we just emerged from the dark out of nowhere.

There are also miles of scrambling routes around Dahab, described in the guide book "Dahab's Walking and Scrambling: a route guide". These can 26 routes can be followed independently.
