Crossing of the Western Sahara
We haven’t officially launched this expedition yet, but around 90% of the places have already gone.
This is a 140km desert crossing on foot, travelling as a small team through the Western Sahara. At the start of the expedition, you will meet your two camels—one for you and some kit, the second mainly for water—and begin learning the work of a cameleteer: how to load them, lead them, care for them and find a good route through the desert together.
The camels are not just there in the background. They shape the pace of the day, the rhythm of the journey and the way we move through the landscape.
Each day the ground changes beneath us: hard desert tracks, soft sand, dry lakebeds and open dunes. We learn to read the terrain as we move, choosing lines that work for the team, the camels and the conditions.
At night, we make wild camps beneath the open sky, cook around the fire and sleep under the stars. In the morning, we wake to cold sand, early light and another day of distance ahead.
The desert is never empty. There are plants, tracks, birds and small signs of life everywhere if you slow down enough to notice them.
This is simple, physical expedition travel: changing ground, camels, firelight, stars, desert life and a small team moving through a remarkable landscape.
If you are interested in one of the final places, get in touch as soon as possible to apply for a place on the team.
