Trekking in the Sahara Desert of M’hamid El Ghizlane is highly recommended. The Sahara Desert is full of history and mystery that deserve to be explored on foot in the Nomadic way. The desert trekking is a walk (on foot) with a view of exploring the Nomadic culture, lifestyle, and custom. Accompanied by the local Nomadic team, consisting of a professional guide, camel drivers, cook, and camels, you start trekking from M’hamid El Ghizlane, the last village before you enter the authentic Sahara Desert. You head towards wild desert.
The camel drivers guide the camels carrying the luggage and personal belongings towards the desirable destination each day. During that period, you move according to the rhythm and intensity of the sun, follow the appropriate path Nomads follow, advance at your pace, and stop from time to time for rest. Basically, you travel in the way Nomads used to. Before leaving a campsite each day, the camel drivers gather the camels, collect wood for the fire. The cook, also, bakes the sandbread and prepares tea, lunch, and dinner. The professional guide, furthermore, provides you with pieces of information about the Sahara Desert at anytime.
You can sleep either under the stars or in the tents based on your preferences. The cook devotes his time to making you taste the Moroccan Local Cuisine. The period of walking each day is approximately 6 hours divided by the break for lunch.
From one stage to another, you ride the majestic dunes of the Moroccan Sahara Desert, admire the breathtaking views of both sunset and sunrise in the wild Sahara Desert, meet Nomads and camel shepherds, study the wells and plants, and immerse yourself in the authentic Sahara Desert atmosphere.
