Special stage: 247.61 km

Liaison : 255,96 km

The last real special stage of this 2024 edition of the AFRICA ECO RACE, with a finish close to Nouakchott, will be longer than usual. It will not be very difficult, however, as it is essentially a corridor between the dunes, with a few tricky sections to tackle on the last day of the race. The advantage of arriving near Nouakchott is that, once again, the link to Senegal will be shorter. Once past the dike between the two countries, the participants will head for the bivouac, where family, friends and partners traditionally await the event's finishing heroes. A final evening, usually quite festive, to release the pressure and give the machines and men a makeover before the final podium the following day.

It is always a pleasure for the population of Menton to witness the arrival of all these vehicles: trucks, cars, buggies, motorbikes… It is also all about the human and convivial aspect of this race which races through the city of Menton.
Fabrice PINET - Ville de Menton

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

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.
Kate & Didier - STARS'N'BARS

This event created by Jean Louis SCHLESSER and René METGE is a precise cocktail where the pleasure of racing bonds with the beauty of the landscapes and the nice atmosphere between everyone on the bivouacs

I am glad that I was standing at the finish line of AER 22 in Dakar at the Pink Lake. It is the goal and dream of all racers who do cross-country races all over the world.
