The fifth edition of the Tunisie Challenge, taking place from 8 to 17 October, promises to be a true festival of sand and dunes over three intense days. Participants will spend two nights in Douz and one night near Ksar Ghilane, at a camp set up beside the Jebil National Park.

The rally will kick off in the city of Tunis, where, for the first time, the administrative and technical checks will take place. Afterwards, a 5-kilometre prologue on the beach of Gammarth will be held. The first stage will also start in the heart of the capital, aiming to bring the event closer to the local community. This brand-new stage will cross the previously unexplored region of Cap Bon, finishing in Sousse.

The second stage will run from Sousse to Douz, known as the gateway to the desert. Participants will stay there for two nights, with the third stage forming a loop — a spectacular route filled entirely with sand and dunes.

From Douz, teams will head into the Grand Erg Oriental, facing tougher terrain and greater challenges across vast dune-filled landscapes. They will also enjoy a night in the Zmela camp, deep in the desert, before finishing the adventure by the sea, near the island of Djerba.

The goal is to fully experience the stunning sand and dune regions of the Tunisian desert. As always, all routes will be carefully adapted to suit each category, in line with the philosophy of the Tunisie Challenge.
