Itinerary

Explore the wild and mystical expanses of the Moroccan desert during this 8-day trek that promises you total immersion in the beauty and solitude of the desert landscapes. Upon your arrival in Ouarzazate, you will be welcomed before starting your adventure through the Draa valley to M'hamid, the Sahara gate.


Every day holds a new discovery: from the desert plateaus of Oum Laachar to the majestic dunes of Chigaga and the refreshing oases of Bouguern. You may have the opportunity to meet nomads and share their fascinating way of life.


Walking to the quiet rhythm of camels, sunsets over the dunes and nights under a starry sky are unforgettable moments that will mark your experience in the desert. After this rewarding adventure, you will return to Ouarzazate via the Hamada du Draa, a stony plateau offering spectacular views.


Our guides will adapt to your walking pace to make this experience in the heart of the desert unforgettable.
