Overview
Cycling from Dakar in Senegal through Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger to Lake Chad traverses the Sahel transition zone between the Sahara and tropical Africa where Fulani nomads herd cattle between seasonal water sources. The historic Mali empire cities of Djenne with its mud-brick Great Mosque and Timbuktu at the edge of the desert represent some of Africa's most extraordinary cultural heritage. This route requires careful security assessment and flexibility.
