The MDS Raid is a duo adventure, with 90 or 107 km to cover over 3 stages in the stunning and spectacular Namib Desert.
The adventure is done in pairs — either with someone of your choice or with another participant who has a similar pace.
The MDS Raid is a return to basics, offering a more authentic and minimalist experience: minimal route marking, a night under the stars during the second stage, more modest water resupply points, and always in food self-sufficiency.
New this year: The Star Night
The second stage will be split in two. You will spend the night under the stars in the heart of the dunes, without returning to the bivouac.
There are no traditional checkpoints — only "Water Stations" will be available every 10 km or so to refill your water.
THE DUO
The duo is at the heart of the MDS Raid Namibia. This adventure is experienced together, from the first step to the finish line. It’s essential to choose the right person — someone with whom you’ll share every challenge, every dune, every moment.
It’s not just a race — it’s a true two-person adventure, where success depends as much on physical strength as on trust and mutual support. Finding the right partner means ensuring a unique, intense, and unforgettable experience — a memory only the two of you will share.
You’ll be united by one goal: start this adventure together and, most importantly, finish it together.
If you don’t have a friend or relative to join you on the MDS Raid, we will assign you a partner based on your athletic level.
