desert trek
Arid land crossing
A desert trek is an extended journey on foot through arid, barren terrain—typically sandy or rocky landscapes with extreme heat and scarce water.
The phrase emphasizes both the harshness of the environment and the endurance required: They prepared for a three-day desert trek across the Sahara.
Desert treks may be undertaken for exploration, spiritual pilgrimage, or adventure tourism.
