With the 21st edition, the 100 km of the Sahara turns over a new page and renew itself!
After many years, a general change was opted for, with the opening of a new cycle. Change of date, formula, area and routes, a radical change directed toward favoring a complete "full immersion" in the desert.
A unique location in the heart of the Grand Erg with high quality logistical accommodation that will grant some major comforts to members and avoid all the daily movement of camps and luggage, with its attendant inconveniences.
Another great novelty "Half 100 km del Sahara for Walkers" a special program addressed to walkers that will allow them to walk 50 km in 5 stages in the heart of the Sahara desert, sharing in full the program dedicated to runners. For the first time, it also opens up the possibility for accompanying persons to share the trip with their friends or relatives: in fact, the logistical arrangement now allows for a stay in the middle of the desert with the appropriate facilities to enjoy comfort and suggestion.
