Marrakesch - Mhamid - Desert Erg Chegaga

Mhamid, Erg Chegaga, 5 days, 4 nights

Who goes into the desert, comes back as another. This Berber proverb and much more you will experience on this trekking.

Day 1: 8h drive, From Marrakech 8 hours drive over the Tizi n' Ticka pass (2260 m a.s.l.) to Ouarzazate. There is a breathtaking view of gorges and mountain valleys. We drive through a beautiful area where we see the Kasbah Glaoui and Ait Benhaddou. This impressive clay village is a UNESCO World Heritage. After this unforgettable visit we will continue to Zagora where we will bivouac.

Day 2: 5h hike, 12km, 20m ▲: We leave the populated areas behind us, turn our gaze forward and hike into the seemingly endless expanse of the Sahara. Our luggage is loaded onto camels. The following days we only need to carry our daypacks. We will go in the direction of Bouygawarn through the villages. After this we will Bivouac under 1000 of stars and enjoy the delicious dinner.

Day 3: 4.5h hike, 10km, 80m ▲ 80m ▼: Departure for Tidri by Zaouit Sidi Salh (possible purchases). A mountain range and the position of the sun help us for orientation. We slowly dive into another dimension of time and space, determined by the day/night rhythm, the regular breaks and meals, as well as walking in the vastness. We discover the different faces of the desert and from our guides, we get an insight into the life of the people living in this mighty landscape. Bivouac and dinner.

Day 4: 5h hike, 11km, 10m ▲: Direction Oulad Drisse. We linger in the dune landscape, enjoying the view over a seemingly endless sea of sand. Traces of all kinds impress with their filigree fineness. (Possibility to visit the Kasbah) Night at the lodge.

Day 5: 8h drive, Return to Marrakech
