Lorenzo Candelpergher Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 Drive Brief This drive is an evergreen classic at Carnity. Moving from Tawi at 5.15m, we will start in the twilight and then head east straight into the raising sun, which will soon unveil itself from behind the skyline of Fossil Rock. We will enter the desert from a bushy area, riding on large and fat ridges as we make our way to the rock. If not too crowded, we will indulge for some play time at the Long Dune, a fantastic, super-long dune offering great opportunities to practice side sloping. We will then head to Fossil Rock, with the plan to perform a breath-taking climb to the top and, if the terrain will allow for it, a descent on the opposite side. We will then head south, moving across a fascinating area populated by dunes with evocative names such as Camel Rock and The Sphinx, with the aim to reach Faya area (see photo below), where very large and mighty dunes will be waiting for us to leave our tire marks on the sand and undeletable memories in our minds.
