Day 1. Fly into Marrakech We will collect everyone from here. Transfer to the Jnane Mogador hotel in the heart of the city. Build bikes, explore the city if you want, then dinner. Getting to bed early is hard, you'll be buzzing with excitement and trying to digest so much information. You'll want to stay and immerse yourself in the city even more...But don't worry, you'll be back here later in the week!

Day 2. Marrakech is already close to the Atlas mountains so we only have a short transfer of 90 minutes in the 4x4 to the Ourika Valley, possible one of the most stunning in Morocco! This is the start of the riding on the first day. We meet up with the 4x4 at around 2 o'clock for lunch in the mountains. After lunch we head for Timichi for the night. This trail is a good introduction of what's to come: A fast but technical mule trail with a few tricky bits thrown in for good measure! Accommodation: nomad-style tents, Erg Lihouïdi. These spacious, carpeted tents make for a comfortable night in the desert, though you may well wish to sleep out in the open air beneath the starry sky.

Day 3. A hearty breakfast and stock of energy bars will see us through the next piece of mind blowing singletrack! From Timichi we head for through the Tiziatin Forest and Gorge. The scenery is amazing if you can take your eyes off the trail! After lunch head off towards Tizi n'Test (2092m). A steady climb on singletrack and dirt track for about an hour then another night in our Erg Lihouïdi and a BBQ with cold beers.

Day 4. Another hearty breakfast and stock of energy bars mixed with singletrack and piste takes us towards Imlil. Again, the scenery, views and villages you pass through on this stretch are breathtaking. After lunch we leave Imlil on more singletrack which will take us to Amizmiz where we stay in a comfortable hotel for the night.

Day 5. From here we head up the Oued Amizmiz Valley to Azeghour, steady piste riding and stunning scenery. At Azeghour we head towards Toulkine on the other side of the river on singletrack all the way to Adghous. From here the trail becomes more technical (loose and rocky) until we reach Tiqlit and pick up a short dirt track to Wadakar. The majority of this day is on more technical singletrack so even though it's only about 50km, it's tough!

Day 6. By now you'll be pretty tired! So after breakfast we head back towards Marrakech on more twisting singletrack. Easier than yesterday but still VERY good! Total ride time today is only about two hours but still worth every minute. When back at the Jnane Mogador hotel we freshen up, have lunch and pack up the bikes. Now is the time to explore the city!

Day 7. We will take you back to Marrakech airport for your flight home.
