2024 DESTINATION : SIERRA LEONE
"In 2024 the rally returns to West Africa, what’s shaping up to be the longest and most demanding route of the Budapest-Bamako. We’ve ventured this long and deep into the heart of West Africa. The route is expected to be spectacular and difficult and as always, full of unexpected twists, turns and adventure. For teams in racing and 4×4 adventures the route will be stunning and very demanding. For bikers natural beauty, varied landscapes and backbreaking routes are expected."
