@Waqaɾ no restriction for passengers. A full day of driving in the desert can be exhausting plus onroad drive to liwa. Prepare your passenger mentally and physically before you invite them 😀

@nithish468 @Waqaɾ @Alphin Aloor @Cristian thank you for joining the much-awaited Liwa Drive 2025

Get ready to conquer the most spectacular dunes of Liwa Mzeer'ah to Moreeb area. This challenging terrain will put our off-roading skills to the ultimate test. Before we hit the dunes, please ensure your 4x4 is in top-notch condition and has been recently serviced to handle the demanding terrain. Our goal is to drive to Moreeb Hill through the dunes from Mzeer'ah and loop back to the starting point, covering some of the most thrilling dunes around the area.

Drive Preparation:

• Your car should be in 100% pristine working condition, so double or triple check everything during this week
• Full-size spare tire with a lug wrench to match your wheel nut size and its depth. For aftermarket rims - Your lug wrench also needs to match the wheel nut depth
• As it's a long full-day drive, so catch up with enough sleep in advance
• 5-10 liter of water per person.
• Snacks for breakfast and lunch
• Keep your car as light as possible by packing what is truly essential
• Fully charged radio with spare battery and all other required off-road gears
• Gas tank FULL upon arrival (Extra Jerry can is not mandatory, if you have the jerry can it is recommended to carry)
• Last petrol station is ADNOC: https://maps.app.goo.gl/xNeYXqrLGr4CzkZdA

Thanks @Asif Hussain, after some consideration (nearly 16 hours of continuous driving), I pulled out this time.

Hope to do Liwa another time.

Have fun.

Due to less participants, i have decided to call off this drive. We only had 2 sign ups, and the area we choose for the adventure is quite challenging and it is not safe to attempt with just 3 cars.

@nithish468 @Alphin Aloor apologies, i will try to post the drive again after some weeks. Hopefully "LIWA AGAIN" 

See you all
