Drive Details

Level:  Fewbie and above

When:  29 October 2020, Thursday

Meeting time: 6:00 AM (SHARP - Without any exceptions)

Action Plan: IMPORTANT NOTICE - This is the first leg of a "marathon" drive, from Lahbab to Qudra. This first part will take us as close as possible to Dubai Skydive. The second leg will take place in the afternoon, departing from nearby Murqaab (just across the Dubai/Al Ain Road), from where we plan to reach the Qudra area, through Lisaili's long range dunes. This first part of the drive will cover a little visited area, from Lahbab, through some low, more technical dunes, to large, very enjoyable string of red sand bowls, then down to either Margham or Skydive, depending on hoe the drives evolves. Finesse driving, side-sloping and some dune crossing will be practiced throughout the drive.

Meeting Point: 

Type of Car: Any proper 4x4 with front and back tow hooks and 8-10 inches of ground clearance.

What to bring along: Loads of water, snacks (for yourself), face mask, rubber gloves, enthusiasm and willingness to learn.

Approximate finish time: 10:30 AM
