This Drive will start in Al Faq’aa which is an interesting area with some high Dunes, some tricky very soft white sands areas that requires technical driving and very quick responses and co-ordination. We will then cross over to the Sand Mountain Area with it’s Red Liwa’esque tall dunes, including the Sand Mountain and the old lady Dune.
This will be an interesting drive which will test out the mettle of all whether new drivers or experienced.

Hope to see you all there for some National Day fun.
