Sahara Trekking

9 Days from Mhamid, the real Nomadic Experience

With our trekkings you leave your everyday life behind you. You dive into the fascination and beauty of the desert. You get to know the life of the Berbers and Nomads. Our guides cook for you traditional food and you sleep in small tents or under the thousands of stars.

Day 1 Mhamid - Sidi Naji

In the morning, we take you from your Riad/hotel or we already spent the night in the desert. We meet our caravan team. After our dromedaries are loaded, we follow our caravan to the desert. Lunch break will be under a shady tree. Have a little time to relax before we continue to Sidi Naji. We stay in a very nice place near a holy site of the nomads. Dinner at the camp fire, sleep under the starry sky or in the tent.

 

 


Day 2 Sidi Naji - Erg Ezzmaila

After a nice breakfast in the open air on the sand dunes, we start our day as usual to the dunes of Erg Ezzmaila. A break on the way. Later the caravan moves on to our next destination. Set up our camp in a very nice place for the night. Have lunch and the rest of the day is yours. In the evening a small tea ceremony at sunset while the caravan chef prepares a tasty dinner served around fire. Overnight in a tent or under the stars.  

 

Day 3 Erg Ezzmaila - Erg Zahar

After serving breakfast and loading the camels we start our trekking. We walk about 4 hours through a fascinating desert landscape. After a little break with nuts we reach the big singing dunes of Erg Zahar for lunch. View the fascinating sunset on one of the highest sand dunes in Morocco. Our dinner is prepared by our guides. We sit at the camp fire with local music and under thousands of stars.  

 

Day 4  Erg Zahar - Erg Smar

Today, we walk in the silence between dunes (flat area). Our route takes us through another attractive desert region and we arrive at a dry Draa Vally. Erg Smar awaits you for our next night camp. After dinner we enjoy the nomadic culture at the camp fire.

 

Day 5 Erg Smar 

One full day left for you. You enjoy the Sahara, its beauty, its silence and peace. Refresh your body and soul, regain strength for more walking and trekking. 

 

 

Day 6 Erg Smar - Erg Chegaga

Today, we walk with the caravan through a flat area. We stop for lunch and in the evening we reach the large dunes of Chegaga. A sea of sand on a length of 40 km and 300 m high. Enjoy the unique sunset on this beautiful dune group. We spend the night in the dunes, with dinner and nomadic entertainment. 

 

Day 7 Erg Chegaga - Erg Bougarn

After breakfast, we continue our trekking. We walk about 3 hours until we stop for the lunch break and a small nap. Our next destination for the camp are the dunes of Bougarn. We set up our tents and have time to search for stars in the starry sky. 

 

Day 8 Erg Bougarn - KrayAt Jmal

If you are exhausted today, in this fascinating landscape you will quickly forget your heavy legs. Our path leads us to the edge of a river with open land. There we are building our camp for the last time. The last food at the camp fire and the music of the nomads will remind us of all the other nights that we have spent under the stars and tents 

 

Day 9 KrayAt Jmal - Mhamid

Once again, a last little effort to get from the Sahara to Mhamid, gateway to the desert. Farewell to the caravan, the guides and the camels. After recent photos in memory of all the moments of our nomadic life on time, we bring you to the riad. There is a nice hot shower and a delicious dinner for you.
