Akkakus Mountains & Ubari Lakes

Libya

Aside from the classical ruins, the other great attraction of Libya is the stunning scenery of the Sahara.

Down in the far south-west of the country are the dramatic landscapes of the Akakus Mountains, the vast ‘sand sea’ of the Murzuq Dunes, and the picture-perfect, palm-fringed oases of the Ubari Lakes.

Getting there requires a bit of effort, but it’s well worth it.

The mountains also contain rock art dating back thousands of years.

Don't take our word for it...

Great to have found a small company that values the customer, and is prepared to invest in building relationships, and does not succumb to mass tourism.
