A miniature Sahara in Senegal: this is the Lompoul Desert, a unique site well worth a visit.
Lompoul, the only desert in Senegal, is one of the country's must-see destinations.
It offers visitors breathtaking landscapes and a blend of Senegalese and Mauritanian cultures. The Lompoul Desert is located between Dakar and Saint-Louis, on the Atlantic coast in northwestern Senegal.

Nearby are the village of Lompoul and the town of Kébémer, as well as the sea. It covers only 18 square kilometers, but it appears vast to the naked eye. This desert is made up of ochre sand dunes that can reach up to 50 meters in height, and vegetation is almost nonexistent.

Let's explore this desert landscape together.
The Lompoul desert can be explored on foot by hiking enthusiasts, and for those seeking thrills, they can venture into the dunes in a 4x4.

Finally, for those who wish to discover Lompoul in an original way, take a camel ride to see this desert from above. Regardless of the mode of transport used, magnificent panoramas await those who venture to the top of the impressive dunes.

For those who wish, you can spend the night in camps and lodges designed to let you enjoy the magic of a starry night in the dunes, and allow you to experience the desert like a nomad.

After a day spent exploring the desert, travelers find themselves at the bottom of the dunes, surrounded by traditional dishes, accompanied by a warm atmosphere and the sound of drums.
