Location: The White Desert begins about 28 miles north of Farafra. It is truly white, in clear contrast with the yellow desert elsewhere. Roam around the pristine Crystal Mountain and explore the White Desert landscape’s uninhabited oases and mini-depressions. Spanning over 3,000 km², this area is a surefire hit for geologists, ecologists, naturalists, artists, or simply curious adventurers looking to be wowed by the White Desert’s unusual landscape formations and distinct cultural heritage. Announced as a protectorate in 2002, this arid landscape is home to several unique animal, reptile and bird species such as the Fennec Fox, the Saharan Horned Viper and the Sooty Falcon. #passionpassport #globetrotter #egypt #campingglamping #whitedesert #bahareyia #oasis #campinglife #whitesand #rockformation
