Tindouf Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

About Tindouf

Tindouf is home to 160,000 people, out of which only 60,000 are native Algerians, the rest being Sahrawis inhabiting the camps (more than twice or even three times the whole population of the Free Zone of Western Sahara). These camps, and the larger Tindouf area, constitute the base of Polisario, a nationalist Sahrawi organization that has been fighting for an independent Western Sahara (Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, in their official parlance) for decades, with tacit approval from Algeria.
