Tour program

  • Arrival in Ouarzazate
  • Check-in before a delicious dinner is served. A good night's sleep in a charming riad awaits before the beginning of the raid.

 

*In case of landing in Marrakech, you will be transferred the same day or the next day at the first hour depending on your arrival time.

  • At the exit of OUARZAZATE, we go up a dry wadi bed, more and more deepened. Then, abandoning the wadi, we totally change landscapes: large undulated stretches of rocks and tufts of grass. As far as the eye can see, a plateau eroded by a multitude of wadis, and in the background, the ATLAS.
  • After having crossed some villages, then gone up a narrow valley, we arrive at SKOURA whose oasis of greenery contrasts with the pink ochre color of the earth.
  • Crossing a new plateau, we join the DADES valley.
  • Dinner and night in a Kasbah with a 360° view on the valley of roses.
  • We approach the summit of the SAGHRO by a very rolling track. This one rises suddenly to lead a few kilometers further, to the pass of TAZAZERT (2283m), where you will be able to observe a breathtaking landscape, in addition to the discovery of the whole Massif of the SAGHRO to the very dark rocks, almost black.
  • The descent towards the south is carried out partly along a green valley very cultivated, contrasting clearly with the landscapes crossed previously.
  • Lunch in NKOB at the Kasbah of IMMDOUKAL and descent of the DRÂA valley which goes along a green sinking road in the heart of the desert.
  • The valley is particularly rich in ochre Kasbahs overhanging the vegetation, or installed on promontories.
  • Dinner and night in a 4* hotel or similar.
  • After taking breakfast, departure toward M'HAMID, last village before reaching the desert.
  • Lunch at M'HAMID.
  • Continuation towards ERG LIHOUDI along the dunes to arrive at OULED DRISS for lunch. Heading south towards Saharan landscapes and the big beautiful dunes of ERG CHEGAGA.
  • Arrival at noon at a nomad bivouac in the mdidle of the desert, our landing spot for the night.
  • Departure towards the West in direction of the big chain of the DJEBEL BANI and the lake of IRIKI, dried up as of now.
  • Continuation along the green valley of WADI ZGUID before reaching a desert-like and rocky landscape.
  • Dinner and accommodation at BAB RlMAL, offering one of the most beautiful panoramas of the region.
  • After the breakfast, we motivate ourselves for the last stage.
  • Crossing of the NKHILA valley
  • Continuation by the JBEL SAGHRO, stronghold of the Berber tribe Aït Atta
  • Visit of the Oasis of Fint, a green place nestled in the middle of the rocks

Last breakfast - the bravest among us will be able to take advantage of one last swim (if the flight schedules allows it), then transfer towards the airport of Ouarzazate.

PS: In the case of a return trip via Marrakech airport, you will be transferred in the late afternoon of DAY 6 to spend the night in Marrakech.
