all area is under army control> we get escorted to Tinduf city and from there with our Algerian friend, who made the invitation, we drove always under escort to timimoun and Elgolea... from there we drive alone to ghardaia and even went for a week in the meaddle of Erg occidentale .....spend more than a week in gardaia alone but on the way to tunisia get escorted again up to the border.... always very kind and welcoming... great experience but Im sure on the other way(Algeria to Mauritania will be almost impossible because they stop anybody long before the tinduf border area.... we meet a german guy with mali passport who was sent back
PS The pist from Zuerat to the border point PK55 is easy and full of big trucks

Thank you for your report. It seems that way from south to north would be much more better. Many things changed rapidly in Algeria nowadays. Last mounth my trip was more relaxing than in 2019.
I will have also invitations and visa from privat person. Hopelly we will know new reports from people crossing border this time.
