ALGERIA

In the heart of the Tassilis of the Hoggar lies a hidden sanctuary of rocks and silence, where every step is a journey through time and nature. This majestic Algerian Sahara landscape, shaped over centuries, rises like stone cathedrals, bearing witness to ancient civilizations.

Starting in Youfi Aghlal, light guides us through serene paths, revealing natural formations like Tin Afaza’s towering rock “cathedrals.” Deeper into Youfi Akit, the desert’s rhythm invites meditation, with each stone whispering secrets of the past.

Further north, Tin Tarabine unveils traces of nomadic life, fragile yet resilient. This journey isn’t just an exploration—it’s an immersion into timeless beauty, reconnecting us with the essence of existence and the Earth’s profound echoes.
