The Archeï Massif

The Archeï Massif

A unique saharan landscape

The Ennedì Plateau, closer to Black Africa with its decidedly “Tassilian” scenery, is unrivalled in the Sahara.

A fascinating blend of natural formations

The vastness of the landscapes and the spectacular jumble of sandstone reliefs go beyond the imagination when the needles, arches, stone cathedrals, or donjons merge magnificently with the perfectly formed dunes.

Labyrinths and verdant wadis

Lush nature in the heart of the desert

The plateaus lead into the half-light of mysterious labyrinths and great forests of ancient trees that transform the wadis into ribbons of green to shelter the numerous camps of the Toubous nomads.

Protected fauna and rock art riches

An exceptional and preserved ecosystem
The presence of water means that it is possible to observe the protected and unique Saharan fauna (crocodiles, panthers, etc.) and the great number of caves and rock shelters will satisfy even the most demanding amateur.

An unforgettable expedition

A 14-day Saharan expedition with seven days of walking and exploration of Ennedì and its extraordinarily beautiful peripheral massifs: Deli, Ga Kourou, Chigeou, Terkeï, Tokou. The trip rounds up with sights of the crocodiles of the famous Guelta d’Archei, the Cyclopean walls, the paintings of “flying horses and camels,” and the vast herds of camels, that all together form the wonderful attractions of the Sahara.
