The cost of the expedition is not so high if you will find few people to share: landcruiser cost 18000 ougija for the car with local driver plus fuel…
Alejuta in the local dress and black turban arrived at 9am…
He is experienced driver. One hour later we crossed picturesque range of Adrar Mts. It was all gravel road full of stones and bumps; only climb to the pass is paved. First stop was close to the picturesque historical ruins of Fort Saganne. Then it was long drive to Ouadane by the piste…
Can you imagine the palm oasis towered by the ruins of XI-century stone town located in the middle of nowhere? The town is larger then I expected – it is just a labirynth of narrow streets, alleys, public buildings with very few people still living there. Entry to the ruins cost 500 ougija.
We spend the night under the tent in Auberge Vasco run by the local women. Bring your sleeping bag, but you will still pay 1500 ougija for the overnight. It is desert! In the evening they played at the camp traditional music and we had a chance to see dances… Unforgetable day!
