Walking & Trekking in The Sahara Desert – Morocco

Moroccan Sahara trekking offers you to discover the desert, a spectacular untamed place of unrivaled beauty. During your journey across the Moroccan desert, you will travel over dunes (ergs) and “hamadas” (stone-covered desert plateaus). The Sahara has a diverse landscape.

Here are various hiking options that begin near Merzouga. The Merzouga desert serves as the primary starting point for excursions in Morocco’s desert. Merzouga’s sand dunes are taller and larger than the other Moroccan deserts. Merzouga is the best location for a memorable hiking adventure. We provide 1- to 10-day desert treks departing from Merzouga. We particularly like the nights spent in the wild tent and the companionship of village nomads.
