More than 100 drivers participate in the Cholistan Jeep Rally (Credits: TDCP)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Cholistan Desert Rally is often known as the Cholistan Jeep Rally. However, don\u2019t get distracted by the word “Jeep”, since it has nothing to do with the international vehicle brand. This motorsport event is neither sponsored by Jeep, nor the rally is specified for Jeep vehicles only. In fact, in Pakistan, people often use the word \u201cJeep\u201d to denote off-road 4X4 vehicles and SUVs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event has been organised by the Tourism Development Corporation of Punjab for the past 18 years. More than 100 race drivers from all over the country participate in this event of desert racing in Pakistan. Derawar Fort, which is about 45 kilometres away from the racing track, serves as the camp office for the racing event. The racing track of the event is 500 kilometres long, running across the arid desert region. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The annual desert rally in Pakistan usually takes place in the pre-spring season. This year Cholistan Jeep Rally will be held from Feb 6-12.  The schedule of the upcoming racing event in Punjab has been detailed in the table below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first edition of the Cholistan Rally was organised in 2005<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Organised annually since 2005, this off-road racing event has been widely covered by many national and international electronic media houses. Female drivers also participated in the Cholistan Jeep Rally in 2014 and showed off their off-road racing skills. The authorities behind this event of desert racing in Pakistan have plans to upgrade it to international standards, inviting foreigners to attend the rally. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
