After successfully completing the scenic coastal trail, the wild jungle trail and the treacherous mountain trail, the MOJO Tribe will now blaze a trail across the stunning deserts of Western India.

The nine-day odyssey will see the Tribe pick their way through the majestic sand dunes of Jaisalmer and journey across the white salt-pan expanse of Rann of Kutch, enroute basking in the ethereal magnificence of the Rann Utsav festival. Tribesmen will also halt at Longewala, site of the historic Battle of Longewala in 1971, and visit the Tanot Mata Mandir that stood unscathed despite numerous attempts to bomb it during the battle.

Camel safaris, dune rides and bonfire nights will add to what already promises to be a unique experience.
