Little Sahara Sand Dunes

This place, as its name suggests is all about sand dunes and there are large sand dunes in this area which many people either toboggan down or use sand boards similar to snow boards to plane down the slopes.
The sand is deposited inland from strong winds which continually build up the dunes increasing their size and appeal.
They also hire out fat bikes 🏍 for riding around the area and these are quite modern models as evidenced by the photo. These seem to have bigger wheels than the ones we used on Cable Beach which allow riders to navigate the dunes and much lighter drier sand.
It made me realize that being lost in the desert with nothing but dunes all around you would be very confronting and send you stir crazy quite quickly. Not to mention how difficult it was to walk up them...exhausting over time.Read more
