Dirt Merchant: Mountain Bike Holiday in Morocco

The adventure starts in Marrakech, the stunning 1000 year-old ochre-colored city with a vibrant street life, a funky old Medina and chaos of cultures with a European flavor. Then it’s off to the highest mountain range in North Africa, the Atlas and their rugged, prehistoric, flat-topped peaks laced with dirt roads and trails still used by the nomadic Berbers. For eight days guests and guides will ride on singletrack, over passes that link small villages, at night you’ll sip mint tea and stare up at the blanket of stars in the desert sky.
