Dahar

Welcome to Dahar

The Dahar region in Tunisia, which is largely unknown even to Tunisians, is one of the most unique places in the country. Situated near the mythological beaches of Djerba and the Sahara desert, it features a mountain range with barren and otherworldly landscapes, along with a spectacular plateau and small but fertile valleys.

With a rich history spanning millennia, the region has served as a refuge for its Berber inhabitants, who have ingeniously adapted to their harsh surroundings. The Dahar's strategic location on the caravan route has made it a hub for civilizations that have travelled across the region over the ages.

Despite evolving lifestyles and mingling populations, the Dahar's people have managed to preserve their customs and traditions, and remain welcoming and friendly towards visitors.

This unique region is rich in cultural, historical, geological, paleontological, and natural heritage, making it an ideal destination for travelers interested in discovery, hiking, meeting locals, or scientific tourism. The Destination Dahar effort brings together local providers and residents who want to promote authentic tourism, inviting visitors to explore the region's unspoiled beauty and culture, free from the overcrowding of mass tourism.
