No easy road trip. A mission! On to the Dubai 4x4 Expo - Part 1
Two adventurers. One goal. To master the most demanding overlanding route of the year: 7000 km of extremes. Black Sheep on Tour is an uncompromising overlanding project that combines technology, perseverance, and authentic storytelling. At its core is the INEOS Grenadier Quartermaster, equipped with high-end components from Black Sheep Innovations and first-class partner gear.
The Route: Switzerland – Austria – Slovenia – Croatia – Serbia – Bulgaria – Turkey – Iran – Iraq – Kuwait – United Arab Emirates.
The route was deliberately designed to include visually stunning, media-friendly, and contrasting locations to capture spectacular photo and video content with maximum impact. Planned highlights include the Dolomites, the Anatolian highlands, the tufa formations of Cappadocia, the Iranian Zagros Mountains, desert camps in Kuwait, and the iconic Dubai skyline.
The Conditions: High mountains, steppe, desert. Gravel roads, border crossings, extreme stress.
The Goal: To put technology to the test. To document everything unfiltered. Every product in a real-world endurance test. Spectacular photo and video material.
