Join us to explore Al Qudra Desert to find what's beyond Qudra lakes

And learn the art of offroading in a versatile playground for your first off-road adventure.

You will learn to self-drive your vehicle from experts having decades of off-roading experience in the UAE. This area offers a good mix of playable long set of dunes and broad ridges to practice your off-road skills slowly but surely.

Goodmorning @Faisal Patrol and @Damian Paliś! Welcome to Carnity Offroad Club !

As a small introduction, kindly inform us about the following:

1) Which 4x4 are you bringing ?

2) Do you have any prior offroad experience ? if so please specify.

3) Is your 4x4 equipped with towpoints at the front and back ? This is mandatory to join our drives.

 

For your first drive, i would request if you can bring the following items:

* Pressure gauge

* Tyre deflator

* Air compressor so you can inflate your tyres after the drive (petrol station is nearby but has a defective compressor).

If you have more offroad equipment, you are welcome to bring it along. Do not hesitate to post your questions on this forum.

See you on coming Sunday !

Hey Frederic, 

I will be in a Land Rover Discovery 2, I have been out a handful of times with friends and another club. The car has towpoints.

Looking forward to it! 

Thanks

Ben  

I have a 05 discovery2, silver too, its serving as our storage now because it has no documents...

I drove it first time on sand, before I had license 😛 , and also why I am here now😈1645699833285.jpeg.67734cc62a14412098a6f42b3d8a2d67.jpeg

Hi Frederic,

Am wondering if its okay to have my baby boy with us in the trip, he is 11 months and have his safety seat in the back my wife with be with him to take care of him also.

Hi @Amr Paple i would highly advise against it. For your very first drive it is much better to come alone so you can focus on getting used to driving in the sand without any distractions.
