Current season
Passage of Jan de Rooy's truck through the Tijirit zone of Mauritania during the 2009 Africa Race.

Africa Eco Race is an annual rally raid, organised in France and run in North and West Africa, launched after the cancellation of 2008 Dakar Rally, and the subsequent moving of the rally to South America.

The rally claims to have innovated to give a special focus on security issues and sustainable development. In addition to the sporting aspect, the rally aims to put emphasis on individual awareness about eco-responsibility.[1] Bivouacs are chosen far from cities and airport tarmac.[2]

History

A later start date in the year than normal due to the ongoing effects of the pandemic. The event started in Monaco before travelling oversea to Nador, Morocco. The route took the participants through Morocco, Mauritania, and finally Senegal where the event finished in Dakar.

This was the first year for the "Raid" category which is a non-competitive class for motorcycles over 650cc.[6]

2024 15th Edition

Environment and sustainable development

Both the participants and the organization make a commitment to take care not to leave harmful traces of their passage through countries. A series of projects will aim to use renewable resources to a long-term contribution to the lives of people in remote areas of several countries that the race will cross. These actions are tangible and lasting.

The organization is leading the way, giving all participants reusable flatware kits for any event. Some organization vehicles are equipped with solar panels to use the energy stored during the day to carry out their missions.

The organization of the Africa Eco Race also created two projects for power generation using photovoltaic panels in Mauritania to power a school in Nouakchott and a library in Chinguetti.

For the environment, was created a category for experimental vehicles powered by renewable energy, designed to test at large scale and under extreme conditions, the reliability, power, strength and endurance of these vehicles. In 2011 Africa Eco Race funded the planting of 3000 eucalyptus in Nouakchott, Mauritania.

However, the race organisation has refused to create any dialogue with the Polisario over rally access to Western Sahara.

Vehicles, Categories, and Classification

There are four ways of participating in the AER with the full race, the classic race, and the two non-race raid events for bikes and cars.

The classifications for each category follow the general pattern of 1st, 2nd, 3rd for the overall category and 1st only for the sub-categories, however, some of the larger sub-categories also reward 2nd and 3rd.
