In addition to the chapels located at the peaks of Mount Horeb and Mount Saint Catherine, and the hermitage of Saints Galakteon and Episteme, numerous chapels are to be found in the outlying area. These include a chapel dedicated to the Prophet Aaron, and another dedicated to Saints Theodore. In the valley opposite there are chapels dedicated to the Nativity of the Theotokos, to Saint Onouphrius, and to the Holy Forty Martyrs. The original cave of Saint John Climacus, at a site called Thola, has also been graced with a chapel. There is also a chapel dedicated to Saints Cosmas and Damian.
