The departure is proposed in the morning from Marrakech to successively join the Tichka pass, the pretty town of Ouarzazate, the oasis of Agdz, Zagora then the village of Mhamid El Ghizlane, at the gates of the desert (it is also the end of the road tarred). During the journeys, visits to Ait Ben Haddou and Ouarzazate are recommended. After nearly 450 km, we leave the road to reach the desert camp by the track (15 min). The evening and the night are offered in a camp (fixed camp) between the palm grove and the first dunes of the Draa Valley.
