AFRICA ECO RACE 2020
ALL EYES ON THE 12th EDITION !!

The AFRICA ECO RACE ended the 13th of January 2019 on the shores of the Lac Rose in Dakar. After the undoubtable success on all levels of the eleventh edition, organizational, sport and security wise, the organization team, most of the competitors and all people involved in the event are looking towards 2020.
During the passing of the rally in Morocco, Mauritania and Senegal this year, the organizers were glad to welcome on the bivouacs, representatives of the various administrative and sports authorities of these three countries, in order to discuss about the next edition.

Jean-Louis SCHLESSER and his team would like to announce that the 12th edition of the AFRICA ECO RACE will take place from 5th to the 19th of January 2020.

As usual, the race will be the link between Europe and Africa: the departure will be given on the Sunday 5th of January, followed by a ferry trip and during 15 days, a race through Morocco, Mauritania and Senegal to end at the famous "Lac Rose".

A few novelties will be announced on the course side, especially in Mauritania where the construction of new tarmac roads for the assistance should offer new horizons for the competitors.

The inscriptions will be open from the 15th of April 2019.

In the meantime, many articles and footage in the media on this beautiful AFRICA ECO RACE are to come.

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.

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.
