From the oued of Dider, we’ll reach Tin Teghert, where we’ll admire the gravures, then we’ll discover the two superposed gueltas of Assar. We’ll cross the dry plateau of Fadnoun until Tasset, rich decorum of eroded mountains which hide beautiful paintings.Then we’ll go down to Afara, guarded by giant warriors of rocks.

We’ll go to admire the paintings of Ifadaniouen, before joining the oasis of Tamadjert, its huge gueltas and its numerous paintings. We leave the Tassili.
