HORSE RIDING
​
This ride takes place beyond Ksar Ghilane dunes which are nature’s boundary of the African Sahara and the harsh sand-seas of the Sahara Desert. It’s an area that lies further south than towns, villages or any permanent human habitation so you’re unlikely to see any other westerners during this ride from oasis to oasis; in fact the only people you are likely to see are Bedouin.
A great deal of the ride is on sand but the Sahara also has extended areas of firmer ground which means the pace of the ride varies according to the going. There are several places where the trail leads up to the top of cliffs, or “Jbal” as they’re called locally, where the views are astonishing and the silence complete.
The wonderful thing about this ride is that you explore hidden away oases and nomad camps, as well as tiny Bedouin communities that seldom receive visitors. It’s a rare opportunity to ride great horses in beautiful places and meet the welcoming local people.
On the ride we sleep in Berber tents which are huge and the foam mattresses inside are pretty comfy. Meals are served around a campfire and each night is memorable for the camp-fire conversation, remarkably tasty meals and stunning stars overhead. There are so many stars at night and the light pollution is nil, which means the night sky simply has to be seen to be believed. So abundant are the stars that it feels as if you’re beneath a massive dome.
