Algeria has a massive desert footprint, with over 80% of its total land area—spanning roughly 1.4 to 1.5 million square kilometers—covered by the Sahara Desert.

Because the Sahara is the largest hot desert in the world, Algeria holds the largest national portion of it, making it the country with the largest continuous desert area within its borders globally. The landscape features a diverse mix of massive sand seas (ergs), rocky plateaus (hamadas), and gravel plains (regs).

Did you have a specific question about Algeria, its geography, or the Sahara Desert that you would like to explore?
