desert rally
Sandy terrain competition
A desert rally is a long-distance off-road motorsport race held across arid terrain, typically featuring cars, motorcycles, and trucks navigating sand dunes, rocky plains, and harsh wilderness over multiple days.
The most famous example is the Dakar Rally, which tests both vehicle durability and driver endurance across hundreds or thousands of miles.
The desert rally crossed three countries over two weeks.
