The Eilat Mountains (Hebrew: הרי אילת Harei Eilat) are a mountain range within the southern Negev in southern Israel.[1] The ranges of the Timna Valley belong to the Eilat Mountains.[2] Among the central block of mountains, Mount Hezekiah is the highest, followed by Mount Solomon. The mountains overlook the Gulf of Aqaba, which is part of the Red Sea.
The rock formations in the Eilat mountains are a mix of granite, limestone, and sandstone, that can be described as "extremely colorful".[3]
