I stumbled across a place when researching a new section of the Spanish C2C trip last year which was the film set for the final scenes of The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. It's been restored by a group of local volunteers, someof which were extras in the film. We passed by there on last years trip and will do again this Easter. A nice promo film has been put together but it still retains it's charm, mainly due to being completely in the middle of nowhere. Enjoy.

i think that old Napoleonic fort towards the end of Torino-Nice Rally takes some beating, especially as some of the rooms had some very odd graffiti, the constant mist and the fox that stole my mates food!

Slept in a number of caves in Morocco too up Todra and Dades Gorges, only time i've woken up with a snake going over doss bag, and scorpions under tent in desert, where the seemed to like the moisture and dark.

Had a few moments in Iraq too, first nights trying to get head down around Basra airport watching the odd US drone come over and the sky being lit up.
