The Rahal Desert Challenge is going into its THIRD year and we are very excited.
But why Rahal? A free translation of the Arabic rooted word means “Traveler” and that is what the participating teams will do. Traveling through the desert on a challenging track with many different types of terrain.
The ultimate goal of the challenge is to get your entire team safely over a variety of obstacles while clocking as few kilometers as you can.
It is NOT A RACE! There is no prize nor honor for the team which completes the challenge in the fastest time.
The entire distance on 2 days will be 150 Km through one of the most beautiful deserts in the world.
