From the first kilometers, the desert reveals its impressive scenery. You will cross vast mineral plains, sandy areas and open panoramas that immediately give the feeling of entering another world. Along the way, you will admire the famous Moroccan desert Colorado, known for its remarkable plateau-shaped rock formations sculpted by time and wind.
The route continues through the wild spaces of the Sahara until reaching the dunes of Erg El Mhazil, a preserved area where silence, light and immensity create a truly peaceful atmosphere.

In the evening, you will enjoy a traditional dinner around the campfire before admiring an exceptional starry sky. Overnight stay in a tent or, for those who wish, under the open sky in the heart of the desert.
