Days 1-8
Marrakech, arrival & Jemaa el Fnaa
Departure in Europe, arrival in Africa: after about three and a half hours of flight you land at Marrakech Menara airport. A driver takes you to our riad in the heart of the city, your first contact with Morocco. In the evening you dive into a spectacle of scents, music and light on the Jemaa el Fnaa. That is how these motorcycle trips Morocco begin: not with asphalt, but with culture, rhythm and the feeling of having arrived.
High Atlas, first enduro stage
The sun stands over Marrakech as we start the machines. The city stays behind us, ahead of us the High Atlas rises. Mild temperatures offer ideal conditions for the first stage of this enduro tour Morocco. Winding mountain roads lead through villages, past kasbahs that look like fortresses from another time. In the afternoon you reach a traditional kasbah. Quiet after the first kilometres, with a view over the valleys at sunset.
Middle Atlas, Berber villages & caravan routes
In the early morning you weave through the traffic heading south. Ahead of you lies the Middle Atlas. Passing the mountain villages of the nomads, you follow old caravan routes that have been used for over 1000 years. This Morocco offroad stage runs right through a sensational geological history that reaches back to the formation of the Sahara around 7 million years ago. Small paths on road and gravel make the day an enduro highlight in the terrain.
Fès, offroad through the Middle Atlas
Today the real offroad adventure begins. You leave the asphalt and follow old caravan routes through the Middle Atlas. The tracks lead past Berber villages, oases and stony highlands. An interplay of nature and culture that makes this enduro tour Morocco special. Over paths that once connected the salt caravans, you ride as far as the monkey lake. In the evening you reach Fès, the city of the dyers, with a walk through the medina.

Ajdir Park, gravel stage heading south
The fifth day leads over long gravel tracks and winding offroad passages further south. You cross the wild terrain of the Ajdir national park, where rocky valleys and green highlands alternate. This stage of the enduro trip Morocco is pure freedom. You feel the rhythm of the machine, the wind on your skin and the vastness of Africa ahead of you, friendly encounters included.
Aït Ben Haddou, film locations & kasbahs
Today history comes alive: the route brings you to the settings of legendary films such as “Lawrence of Arabia”, “Gladiator” and “James Bond Spectre”. On the way lies the UNESCO World Heritage site Aït Ben Haddou, whose earthen buildings have already served Hollywood as a backdrop. You stop for a coffee and enjoy the atmosphere. Dust, freedom and culture: that is how this Morocco offroad tour feels.
Marrakech, back over the pass roads
Along old caravan routes that once connected traders and nomads, you ride over gravel roads and pass roads back towards Marrakech, past small villages and abandoned supply stations. This motorcycle tour Morocco shows its full variety once more. Towards the afternoon you reach the city with its colourful souks. In the evening comfort in the riad and a traditional dinner are waiting.
Marrakech, farewell & journey home
The sun warms the roofs of Marrakech while you look back over the past days at breakfast. This enduro Morocco trip was more than a holiday: encounter, nature and adventure in one. After checking out, the driver takes you to Menara airport. One last look at the Atlas, then it is time to say goodbye. But the feeling on two wheels stays.
