The Allgäu Orient Rallye: A great adventure for enthusiastic teams and their (almost) veteran cars. From the South of Germany, across the Balkans, through Turkey and Syria to Jordan - the teams make their way off the beaten track. On Mai 2nd, 2009, the Allgäu-Orient Rallye starts for the forth time, combining fun and fundraising for a charitable cause.

As team "Amman Express", Anton, Bernhard, Friedrich, Hubertus, Marcus, and Till, accept the challenge. They report in this blog exclusively for their sponsor QuestNet.

Day 8: From Aleppo to Krak des Chevaliers




In the morning we visited Aleppo's fortress and bazaar before heading off to Krak des Chevaliers. After 4 hours of driving on narrow windig roads, along the last heaps of this winter's snow, we reached the medieval military castle of Krak des Chevaliers. The view from the castle hill is magnificent. Right next to the fortress we found a little hotel, managed by a very friendly landlord, who offered us accomodation within our budget (10 EUR per night). That evening, after a nice dinner, we went to bed early.
