More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The engine rumbles before the dunes come into view — a raw, mechanical heartbeat against an expanse of ochre sand. You climb into a 2000cc buggy, goggles down, and the guide points to a ridge where the wind has carved sharp cornices and smooth bowls. The first run pushes you up a steep face; the buggy leans, then descends with a spray of sand that seems to dare you to come again.
