Founded in the early 20th century around a French military post, Tamanrasset quickly became a strategic location. It attracted Tuareg tribes as a gathering point, and saw Father Charles de Foucauld settle in his hermitage at Assekrem, which became a spiritual Mecca. Today, Tam is a major Saharan crossroads, retaining its nomadic roots while opening up to exploratory tourism and trans-Saharan tours.
Tamanrasset is not just a GPS point. It's an elevation. A land where time slows down, where the mountains speak, and where human beings fade away before the majesty of the desert. The Hoggar is not a place to visit. It's to be experienced, felt and meditated upon. Here, the soul breathes more deeply.
