Day 2: Dades Valley - Todra Gorge - Merzouga - Camel ride - night in desert

After breakfast, we leave Dades then we go on towards Todra Gorges, one of the most beautiful and impressive canyons in Morocco. This is what makes it a serious place for half and full day trekking trips and interesting canyons for serious climbers. From Todra gorges we head towards Merzouga through arid landscapes and along many oases of palm grooves. We pass Erfoud or what we call the capital of fossils as it's very well known for its fossil's factories where they make beautiful shapes and pieces out of the rock of mountains. Then we'll head for the Erg Chebbi sand sea.

We continue deeper into the desert landscape, until dunes appear in the middle of nowhere .When we arrive to our auberge (Inn) you meet your camel guide and then you will ride the camels into the desert dunes to the bivouac (camp). Spend the night under the evening stars shining brilliantly in the clear night sky. Climb the dunes and watch the moon rise before retiring to your bed in the bivouac.
