STAGE 8 TRACKING
STAGE 8: UYUNI > IQUIQUE
Connection 24km | Special Stage 781km | Total 805km
COURSE OVERVIEW
The Dakar bows to the laws of nature. Hence, the weather will decide which route will be taken to leave Bolivia. If it’s dry, the start could take place in the Salar de Uyuni, for a 100km route across a smooth road of white salt: full throttle and foot to the floor! The route then slows down abruptly, with the longest part of the special stage taking place on more technical mountain terrain. The day will end with more than 40km of dunes, concluding with the vertiginous descent to Iquique.
The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.
