RIDE
DETAILS
DAY 01
Marrakech to Aït Benhaddou
The journey begins with a briefing and bike preparation in Marrakech before climbing into the High Atlas Mountains. Sweeping mountain roads and Berber villages lead you over the range and down into southern Morocco. The day ends at Aït Benhaddou, Morocco’s most famous kasbah and a UNESCO World Heritage site.
DAY 02
Aït Benhaddou to Dadès Gorges
Ride through classic southern landscapes of open plains, kasbah valleys, and rising rock formations. The scenery becomes increasingly dramatic as you approach the Dadès Gorges, where winding canyon roads cut through towering red cliffs.
DAY 03
Dadès Gorges to Merzouga (Sahara Desert)
A powerful riding day through remote desert regions. Vast horizons and long flowing roads lead you to Merzouga, where the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi rise from the desert floor. Sunset over the dunes is a highlight of the tour.
DAY 04
Merzouga to Azrou
Leaving the Sahara behind, the route follows the palm-lined Ziz Valley before climbing steadily into the Middle Atlas. The air cools, the landscape turns green, and cedar forests signal your arrival in the mountain town of Azrou.
DAY 05
Azrou to Fes
A shorter riding day through rolling Middle Atlas terrain brings you to Fes, Morocco’s spiritual and cultural capital. The afternoon is yours to explore the ancient medina, a maze of medieval streets, markets, and craftsmanship.
DAY 06
Fes to Chefchaouen
The ride north into the Rif Mountains introduces quieter roads and lush scenery. Chefchaouen appears like a mirage, its blue-washed streets tucked into the mountains. The evening is free to explore this iconic town at a relaxed pace.
DAY 07
Chefchaouen to Tangier
Descending from the Rif Mountains, the route heads toward the Mediterranean coast. Tangier welcomes you with its historic port, kasbah views, and unique blend of African and European influence.
DAY 08
Tangier to Casablanca
A scenic ride south along the Atlantic corridor. Open roads and coastal plains lead to Casablanca, Morocco’s modern economic hub. The overnight stop here breaks up the return journey and allows time to relax or visit the Hassan II Mosque area.
DAY 09
Casablanca to Marrakech
A smooth final ride through fertile plains returns you to Marrakech. The journey ends where it began, with a final group dinner celebrating the miles, landscapes, and shared adventure.
