Tunisia - Desert Oasis - Salt Lake
Tunisia is a country situated on the Mediterranean coast of North Africa, midway between the Atlantic Ocean and the Nile Valley. It is bordered by Algeria in the west and Libya in the south-east. An abrupt southern turn of its shoreline gives Tunisia two faces on the Mediterranean.
Oasi di Tamerza - Tunisia
Tamerza, oasi di montagna.
... è una bellissima località desertica, che per le sue viste è anche conosciuta come il balcone sul Sahara.
L'oasi è percorsa da una ricca vena d'acqua, ed il verde delle sue palme contrasta con i colori della sabbia. E' famosa per le sue cascate, le gole scavate nella roccia e dal suo antico villaggio ora abbandonato.

Entry Title: The oasis villages: Chebika, Tamerza and Mid
Entry:
This was one of our most enjoyable and memorable days. We began by keeping our appointment with the caleche driver, quite early at 9.15. He was waiting outside the hotel and we emerged before time because I needed to buy batteries for my camera. He picked us up and after the purchase of batteries, we continued into the palmary. This time we were not tired and were able to understand and enjoy ourselves much more. As well as many types of date trees (about 60 different sorts), he showed us pommegranate, lemon, peach, orange, mini-banana and olive trees, along with small jasmine plants and others. It was a calm paradise here, and we got down from the caleche to take a walk amongst the vegitation. Wonderful photos were taken, including one of Paul Eric looking as though he were climbing a palm tree, but alas, those we will never see! Amazingly, there was a man with a jewellery stall in the middle of it all, and I purchased three necklaces for friends for only 5 dinars! Tozeur is reputed to produce the best dates in all of Tunisia. They were indeed very, very good even in February, but a trip at harvest-time is a must for a date-lover like me! Another time, Inchallah! Back at the hotel, we waited for the deliverance of our rental car. Along came the man, and we accompanied him to his office down the road. It turned out to be a small Fiat with a sticky clutch for 60 dinars, but it did fine. Petrol was pretty cheap too - no more than 20 dinars for the ca.200 km. return trip. Relieved that I had managed to navigate out of town and even work out how to lift the clutch up from the floor when it stuck, we set off in anticipation. This was one of our happiest times on the flat, open road towards the mountains by the Algerian border. It was not a main road and there was little traffic towards these sparsly populated places. In some ways, the barren desert landscape reminded me of driving in Iceland with its rugged, wide expanse. I love the feeling of freedom this gives, and seeing a heard of camels grazing in the wild absolutely delighted us. We stopped the car to get out and view them more closely. After a while the scenery changed as we ascended the mountains on the narrow, winding path. With care, this was not difficult to negotiate. The views were stunning! We arrived first at the small mountain village of Chebika. This is one of those where the ancient Berber settlement was ravaged by heavy rains some 40 years ago. The inhabitants quickly built alternative homes nearby, but it is fascinating to explore the ruins. In Chebika, the refreshing water rushes over an imposing waterfall to form a wadi surrounded by palm trees at the bottom of a gorge. We found our way here, and the wadi was a beautiful deep, still green, full of frogs that we had fun chasing and filming. Our only slight problem was the guide who was determined to follow us. After asking him several times to leave us alone as politely as I could, I ended up having to bring up the magic word respect which put a few more metres between us. Still, had he not sat on a rock nearby, I might well have taken a bathe with the frogs! But it was business as usual as we re-mounted the hill on our return, and we bought drinks and ice-creams from the café. We continued over the mountain to Tamerza. By this time we were hungry, and a very well sign-posted Restaurant Le Soleil became our first experience of Tamerza. It almost seemed as though the sweet lady who welcomed us had been expecting us, and we chose to eat on the roof in what seemed to be the middle of nowhere. The atmosphere was more of a village home than a restaurant, and we had fun watching a man chase his turkeys, and listening to the bleeting of goats. Expecting her to bring the menu, she soon ascended the stairs with hot chorba, coke, water and bread. We enjoyed it, and immediatly we were presented with briq, followed by lamb couscous, and lastly the most juicy, fat dates and mint tea. This was the best meal we had in all of Tunisia, the best service and probably the most enjoyable scenery. Not bad for 26 dinars! Now we needed to ...

Oasi di montagna - Tunisia
Meraviglioso paesaggio tra le montagne al confine con l'Algeria, a nord dello Chott el Gharsa:
Chebica (stambecco in arabo), incuneata tra le montagne con la sua meravigliosa sorgente che forma un piccolo laghetto.
Mides arroccata su una gola mozzafiato, set del film Il Paziente Inglese e dello sceneggiato RAI il Quarto Re Magio.
Tamerza, la più grande,con le sue due cascate ed il paese abbandonato: le case di fango scioltesi dopo due giorni di pioggia ininterrotta a fine anni '60.
Attraverso queste montagne si snoda la mitica Pista di Rommel, Da Redeyef a Chebica.

I pinnacoli nel lago salato, tunisia / the unknown pinnacles in Tunisia
Uno dei luoghi più belli e meno noti del Sahara tunisino, by tunisialternativa.it
La cosa meravigliosa è che, oltre ad essere un luogo meraviglioso, non è stato ancora scoperto dagli altri organizzatori di viaggi, e questo lo rende UNA PREZIOSA GEMMA da condividere con pochi... anzi se potessi la terrei solo per me!
Il motivo di questa scoperta è che Tunisialternativa.it non va in giro a copiare itinerari o usare tracce altrui e non frequenta le solite tratte turistiche, ma andiamo alla ricerca e alla scoperta di angoli non intaccati dal turismo di avventura di massa... il nome tunisia alternativa non è scelto a caso....
One of the last hidden spots in Tunisia... notice there are NOT tires signs in front of my Land Rover: I know this spot since many years and I never found other tourists or other signs of vehicles... it's one of my little secret places... / NOTE: it is NOT chott el Djerid :)
