Ennedi, Saharan Garden
An unforgettable expedition in the Sahara
A 4×4 expedition to discover the Ennedi Massif and the Ounianga Lakes, both listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The Ennedi, remote and still little visited, is a vast labyrinthine rocky citadel, traversed by deep canyons where wild flora and gueltas hide, home to the proud Toubou nomads and their camel herds.
Guelta d'Archei
A unique natural spectacle
The Archeï Guelta, where hundreds of camels come to drink, is surrounded by high walls rich with rock paintings. The off-road crossing of the Mourdi depression, with its dunes swept by the harmattan, offers breathtaking scenery.
The Ounianga Lakes
An oasis in the heart of the desert
To the north of the massif, discover the Ounianga Lakes, with their steel-blue waters fringed by palm trees, hidden in the heart of the desert. Other incredible sites like Tokou, Terkei, Abayke, and Sabi make this expedition especially emotional: undoubtedly a “must” of the Sahara.
Highlights
The OROA Nature Reserve, the last wild island of the Dama gazelles, Oryx, and Addax
The mythical guelta d’Archeï
The great depression of Mourdi with its dunes
The beauty of the Ounianga Lakes
