The next few kilometers are partly sandy, partly gravel. After several kilometers, the mountains begin to appear. Following the waypoints, the route becomes more navigable. Now the contrast to the desert becomes noticeable. The road winds through the mountainous landscape. Occasionally, we encounter jeep drivers traveling in organized groups. We pass a small village.
