Name; Camels, Dunes, and Wadis Loop
Start: Shawka, UAE
Finish: Shawka, UAE
GPX: GPX File
Distance: 109.5 Miles
Description: According to Bikepacking.com, where this route was discovered by the FKT route contributor, this route, "The route begins with an awesome section of flowy singletrack through some of the UAE’s best mountain bike trails. After that, the route is mostly flat with the difficult sections coming on day 2 when you hit the mountains. The flat sections do have sandy bits so if you’re riding anything less than a 2.6” wide tire, expect to push your bike a bit, but not forever. On each day, you ride through one or two small villages or towns with plenty of resupply options. Additionally, the warmer weather in the region allows for a much lighter load on the bike."
