CANCELED-Morning Desert Hike - Exploring Qudra - Dubai - 14 Dec 2024

[Frederic]

TAKE NOTE: THIS IS NOT AN OFFROAD DRIVE.

HIKE DESCRIPTION

Hiking 🥾🥾is one of the most invigorating ways to stay fit, and for us off-roaders, the desert dunes are the perfect playground.

We’ll kick off the adventure from the backside of the Last Exit Qudra parking, where we’ll leave our cars behind and venture into the peaceful lakes area and surrounding dunes. Expect to see wild gazelles, 🦌 a variety of birds 🐦, and the unique desert landscape unfolding before you.🌄

The hike will last about 90 minutes, covering roughly 7 kilometers—mixing stretches of solid ground with the challenge of walking on soft, shifting sand (perfect for building endurance).

As we finish, we’ll pass by the small supermarket at the parking, where you can grab a refreshing drink and freshen up at the washrooms.

It’s not just about getting your steps in—it's a chance to connect with nature, breathe in the crisp air, and burn those winter calories. Bring your friends, family, or anyone who’s up for an adventure. The dunes are waiting!🌄
