How did Berbers and others travell across the Sahara?

Berbers and other groups traveled across the Sahara primarily by using camels for their ability to withstand long periods without water. They established trade routes known as the Trans-Saharan trade network, connecting North Africa to West Africa, and relied on their knowledge of the desert terrain to navigate using landmarks and the position of the sun and stars. Caravans were essential for safety and provided support through the harsh conditions of the desert.
