We just travelled on this route last week. If anyone needs any info, GPS waypoints, hotels, etc I'd be happy to answer. Also feel free to check out the pix:

Thinking of a quick trip over christmas (10-15 days) from Madrid down to Nouakchot and would appreciate any waypoints for the route, campsites/hotel especially on the way from the Mauri border to Nouakchot. (I already have the waypoints for this route from CScott's shr-ovrlnd book.) Is it still 300mls (480kms) between fuel stop on the way to Nouakchot?? thanks gt |
what about kiffa - hamoud route - as far as i look for the best border crossing from mauritania to mali (what road conditions concerns)- is it ok for 2wd?
|
Today I'll upload the GPS waypoints to our site with the coordinates of good campsites.
There's one place to fill up with fuel between Nouadhibou and Nouakchott. THis is what it looks like: http://www.budapestbamako.org/photos...oct2k5/111.jpg Gas is expensive and I'm not so sure about the quality. You can bargain with them. THe old gas station attendant needs new reading glasses. His vision is very poor. You can barter gas for glasses. http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/ubb/smile.gif As far as travelling in a 2WD from Kiffa-Hamoud-Kayes route, it's feasible, but I'd call it incredibly challenging. Here are two pictures from that road. Take a look. Can your 2WD handle this? http://www.budapestbamako.org/photos...oct2k5/091.jpg or this http://www.budapestbamako.org/photos...oct2k5/093.jpg [This message has been edited by budapestbamako (edited 27 October 2005).] |
Hiya,
As many waypoints as you have got and hotels. Will be doing the route through Mauritania. Hotels especially, plus prices. What was the cost of Deisel? Yours Andy e-mail andy "at" preaching.co.uk take out the "at" and replace with @ |
It's not going to look good here, but if you cut and paste it and put it in word with 8point Times it'll look much better. (YOu should do a little work in the name of exploration too http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/ubb/smile.gif )
Here are some explanations: Campgound- hotel, campsite, good area for bushcamping Controlled Area- Checkpoints millitary, police, customs P05-P31 - Banc Darguin waypoints VILLAGE2-9 small villages along the route between Kiffa and Mahoud where there's no clear road. Helps you with the navigation. BORDER GUARD- this is a building doesn't look like a guard post at all. It looks like all the others, but has a flag. Must get your passport stamped. SANDBOARD- If you have your snowboard, this is a great place to sandboard. THe mauris are working on skilift. (Just kidding) SUPERMARKET- The best supermarket on this side of Paris. You should restock on supplies here.
