    Hiking

    An impressive location where the wind has free rein.
    The Roman Plain, also known as the Central Loop Dune, is a vast sand mass of 120 hectares, which shifts from northwest to southeast under the influence of the wind.

    Hiking

    This centrally located, impressive drifting dune of more than 100 hectares moves due to the prevailing southwest wind in an easterly direction at a speed of about 5 to 10 meters per year. This enormous sandbox is therefore known as Sahara.
    Beautiful hiking area!
    Sturdy footwear is recommended.
