| We’ve partnered with Moroccan adventure travel experts, Grup Xaluca (based in Barcelona and Marrakech), to bring you this magnificent gravel adventure in Morocco. With Xaluca’s expert local knowledge, extensive support, and their network of luxury Moroccan hotels – combined with the gravel riding experience of our Gravel Project Manager, Marc Gasch, we’re able to offer you a unique and epic trip to this exotic country.
The trip starts in the most mesmerising of Maghreb cities, Marrakech, continues in the Atlas Mountains near Dades, before crossing the Saghro mountain plateau and reaching the Saharan desert plains in Arfoud. You’ll ride around the incredible Erg Chebbi sand dunes, sleep under the desert stars in the luxury bivouac campsite provided by Xaluca, before heading north along the Kasbah route to finish the ride close to the famous market town of Rissani. Expect a truly epic trip, designed for riders with experience in riding technical gravel trails and who welcome both a challenge and adventure. Join the Thomson staff and the local Xaluca experts on this epic journey across Morocco. Are you ready? |
