Is it cold at night climbing Mount Sinai, and what should you wear?

The climb happens at night and you sweat heavily on the way up, so pack a spare t-shirt to change into at the summit before sunrise.
Spare t-shirt
Right before sunrise it gets quite cool at the summit, so a windbreaker or warm sweater is recommended.
Windbreaker or sweater
Sneakers are a must, as the trail is dusty and rocky. Only local Bedouins, who are used to it, hike it in sandals.
Sneakers
Bring at least 1.5 liters of water per person, otherwise you'll have to buy it from Bedouins along the trail for $2-3 per bottle.
