Accessible by 4x4 only, it is about 2 hours from Fayoum. Some 40 km from Wadi Rayan, the Whale Valley takes you several million years back in time. Desert landscape, cliffs shaped by the wind, shells cracking under your feet, the rest of the way is covered on foot. The encounter with these cetacean skeletons, some measuring more than 20 metres, is unforgettable. What happened so that all these whales were "buried" in this place? An ecological catastrophe, a collective suicide? Specialists' opinions diverge. The walk is surprising and magical for the simply curious.
