The annual ‘Camel Trek’ participants reached the Heritage Village of the Global Village after completing a 12day journey across the UAE desert, starting from the Arada area in Abu Dhabi and concluding in Dubai.

The 10th edition of the event was organized by the Hamdan Bin Mohammed Heritage Centre. Covering a total distance of 557 km, participants commenced their trek from Arada, traversing diverse locations across the UAE desert before concluding at the Heritage Village in Global Village.

The journey was unforgettable, bringing together a French mother and her 10-year-old daughter in a unique experience. They shared 12 days of challenges and difficulties in the heart of the UAE desert.

Regarding this experience, the French mother stated, “I deliberately took my daughter on this challenging journey during the holiday season and New Year celebrations. Life in the UAE is full of luxury and beautiful things for children, so I wanted my daughter to have a different experience, discovering that life is not as easy as she lives it. I wanted her to realize how difficult the journey was that the people of the UAE have undertaken to put their country at the forefront.”
