The event will start from 200 meters from the Al Wasil Fort Location, where you can park your car. From parking runners can walk to the start point. The track will follow the trail path and will enter the sand dunes. The trail will be properly marked and we will have volunteers and first aid assistance to make sure it is a safe event.
