DJG → TMR
Which side of the plane to sit from Djanet Inedbirene Airport (Djanet) to Aguenar – Hadj Bey Akhamok Airport (Tamanrasset)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most dramatic views of the volcanic heart of the Hoggar Mountains and the unique 'stone forests' of the Tassili n'Ajjer plateau during the approach to Tamanrasset.

The Stone Forests
Bizarre, vertical sandstone formations of the Tassili plateau that look like a petrified forest from above.
Atakor Volcanic Field
The central volcanic highland of the Hoggar, featuring dramatic volcanic plugs and craters.
Mount Tahat
Glimpses of Algeria's highest peak, rising to nearly 3,000 meters amidst the lunar landscape.
Assekrem Plateau
High-altitude plateau famous for its jagged horizon and the hermitage of Charles de Foucauld.
Tamanrasset Oasis
The sudden appearance of the red-clay city and green palm groves amidst the surrounding desert during descent.
The right side is superior for viewing the high volcanic peaks. Try to book a flight that departs in the morning to have the sun behind you, illuminating the red and black rock faces. Keep your camera ready for the 'needles' of the Hoggar during the final 20 minutes of the flight.

Tassili n'Ajjer Canyons
Deeply eroded sandstone canyons and gorges visible immediately after takeoff from Djanet.
Southern Hoggar Peaks
The southern fringes of the Ahaggar Massif, featuring rugged granite domes and basaltic outcrops.
Oued Iherir Drainage
Intricate, ancient riverbed patterns (oueds) that create life-like arterial structures across the desert floor.
Grand Erg Oriental Edge
The distant shimmer of massive sand dune seas stretching toward the southern horizon.
Sit on the left for softer lighting during midday flights. Look for the transition from the red sands of Djanet to the black volcanic rock of the Hoggar. Late afternoon flights provide incredible long shadows over the oueds.
