At the camp last night we already noticed that there are much more people traveling and camping in this area then in the places where we were the past few days. You can see it from the tracks (car-, camel- and hiking-) in the sand as well as from the camps around us.

When we leave this morning we are not the only hiking group but after about an hour it seems as if we are alone again in an isolated world.
Then it is a shock when you suddenly see cars again but it turns out that we are crossing the road that we took from Baharyia to the Chrystal Mountains, about 50 km south west of where we started our hike.

In the distance we already see the hills of the Western Desert where we continue our hike after a lovely lunch under the shade of some palm trees.
