The route of the 2010 Pharaons Rally
2600 KM of beauty through dream landscapes
reserved for desert pro.
The desert presents extreme conditions. Among them, a strong heat that can exceed 70 degrees Celsius, a drought, sandstorms on occasion and without forgetting the intense cold of the night. Here are some tips and tricks to help you survive if you broke down with your ATV on your desert journey.

First and foremost, clothing must be light, loose, non-synthetic and clear. As the cold is intense at night, you should think about bringing warm clothes, as well as a good blanket of survival. A very important advice, do not forget to bring with you your compass and map, nutritious bar, etc. You can also opt for a GPS that you install on your quad for example.

Here are some tips for surviving in the desert. Avoid undressing despite the overwhelming heat of the day. If you have to move, do it at night, otherwise you will run out quickly with the heat of the day. Avoid walking barefoot in the hot sand of the desert. Day and night, take time to rest your feet while on the go and clean your shoes and feet during each break.
Never leave alone
