Presentation

MONDAY JANUARY 8, 2024

STAGE 6: DAKHLA / CHAMI: 633.77 kms

Special stage: 204.62 kms

Liaison : 372,87 kms

After the long morning liaison to the south and the Mauritanian border, competitors will tackle the special stage between Boulanouar and Chami, which was cancelled on the last edition due to the weather. This is the first special stage where heat and pure off-road navigation make their appearance, all on sandy tracks that are very pleasant to ride but sometimes tricky with a lot of navigation. In a way, a condensed version of the Mauritanian adventure, but without the big dunes.

Competition and sharing define the spirit of the Africa Eco Race

We congratulate AFRICA ECO RACE for their support AMADE and enabling Mauritanian and Senegalese students to have access to solar lamps. A child with light at home, is a child able to do his homework when night comes.
Jérôme FROISSART - Directeur AMADE Mondiale

For us as service-team, the AER feels like going on a road-trip with the whole family ! Together we follow the ancient African trails. Together with the complete organization of the AER we give it all to bring our teams to the legendary Lac Rose ! Being true fans of the AER we enjoy the whole concept as you find in no other race, as one of our SSV pilots reminded me, there is only one real race to Dakar !
Wil THEUWS - Team Manager QFF Racing

The AFRICA ECO RACE is a true human organisation, you really fell that you're a part of a global project with an open and very initimate feeling. So you sleep with very simple thoughts while you reach your goal: Dakar
Franco Acerbis - ACERBIS

The enthusiam and passion of the team as well as their constant research of bringing eco-responsable actions to their event, make the AFRICA ECO RACE one of the unmissable events of the Principality and we are proud to welcome them every year. We encourage everybody to buy a maximum of solar lamps provided by AMADE and AFRICA ECO RACE. More than a daily use, they will enable senegalese and mauritanian children to walk safely home after dark and will contribute to reducing the racing vehicules' carbon footprint.
