Highlights

Day 1: Marrakech to Imlil

Medina of Marrakesh - Your tour begins when we collect you from Marrakech and transfer you directly to a comfortable riad in Imlil.

After a hearty Berber dinner, we will have an early night - there’s an exciting adventure to start tomorrow.

Day 2: Imlil to Tacheddirt to Tamgaist to Amssakrou to Imi Oughlad

Imlil - On your first day of mountain biking, there is some technical single-track riding to be had and lots of stunning scenery.

We’ll ride through the villages of Tacheddirt, Tamgaist and Amssakrou to Imi Oughlad where we’ll spend the night.

Dinner will be a three course meal served at our gite and cooked by our Berber chefs.

Day 3: Imi Oughlad to the head of the pass

Imlil - Today, we will start with a solid, tough climb to get to the beginning of a good, long and technical single-track.

At the bottom of this single-track there is a shop where we can get some snacks and drinks before hit the next section.

This section can be quite difficult, but it is still very enjoyable and technical.

After this section is done, we’ll arrive at our gite, where we’ll stay for the night. After we’ve eaten, there’ll be time for a photo session which is a great opportunity to get some action shots!

In the evening, we’ll settle down to another wonderful three course meal, courtesy of the Berber chefs.

Day 4 : Amizmiz

Imlil - Today, we will be taking advantage of our (nearly) 2000m of altitude and enjoying some simply amazing single-track descent into Morocco’s valleys and riverbeds.

The track is is fast and flowing, with plenty of tight bends to keep you on your toes!

You’ll stop for lunch before taking on some more stunning single-track and enjoying some spectacular views.

Day 5 : Ait Ahmad

Imlil - Today is likely to be one of the toughest days of mountain biking on your adventure.

There is lots of single-track ascent and descent which includes a riverbed and some very rocky sections.

Eventually, you will pick up a smooth road and follow it for a short distance to get to the van and to sit down for your lunch.

After lunch there’ll be a short ride through several Berber villages to Ait Ahmad where we can rest and find our gite for the night. Ait Ahmad is a great spot to explore and is situated in some lovely countryside.

Day 6 : Ait Ahmad to Ijoukak to Tigmi Tamazirt

Imlil - This will be your last day on the bike and quite possibly the most fun!

Again, there will be lots of technical single-track and some solid ascent and descent.

The final descent is big and long and includes many great sections to test your skills on.

By the time you reach the rickety bridge at the end, you’ll be ready to find the van, rest and have some well-earned lunch.

From there, it is only 18km to the gite at Tigmi Tamazirt. If you need us to, we can give you a lift for the final section.

Day 7 : Tigmi Tamazirt to Marrakech

Imlil - After breakfast, its time to pack up the bikes and head into Marrakech for the day.

There’s plenty to see and do, including souks, shopping, eating in local restaurants and enjoying the architecture - maybe even a Hammam spa to help you recover from your adventure!

In the evening, you can retire to a comfortable hotel (the hotel is included in the price) and catch up on some rest.

Day 8 : Marrakech

Medina of Marrakesh - Today is your last day. After breakfast, its time to head for home.
