Madaniyin (DT70) - Remada (DTRM).
Tunesia.
Flight No. 020.
Roads Used: Route Nationale 19 / RN19 (Madaniyin - Remada) & Route Regionale 112 / RR112 (Remada - Bir Zar).
1. Madaniyin - Tataouine: Our Trans-Saharan Journey begins in Madaniyin / Medenine (Pic 1) where we joined the RN19 (Pic 2) on its way south towards the Libyan and Algerian borders. Passing Bir Lahmar (Pic 3) and Cité Tahrir (Pic 4) we arrived in Tataouine (Pic 5).
2. Tataouine - Remada: Further south we came across the small town Dar Souïd (Pic 6) and crossed a seasonal river (a “wadi” or “oued”; Pic 7) and left the RN19 for the RR112 west of Remada itself (Pic 8).
3. Remada - somewhere in the southern hill ranges: It becomes more difficult to name the locations of the shots the further away we get from named settlements, rivers or mountains. We crossed through a pass over the first major hill range south of Remada (Pic 9), skipping over another oued on our way south (Pic 10) before snaking our way southeastwards towards the Libyan border (Pic 11).
4. Somewhere in the southern hill ranges - Bir Zar: After crossing our third oued near the border with Libya (Pic 12) we turned southwest and flew alongside the border (Pic 13) and across another hill range (Pic 14) to Bir Zar (Pic 15).
