"Bivouac Aladdin" at the foot of the Chegaga dunes

 What would a trip to SAHARA be like without a night in a bivouac in the very heart of one of Morocco's largest sandy desert expanses: the great dunes of Chegaga? Your stopover in this immensity shaped by the winds will make you live an enriching, authentic and resourcing experience.

Your stay in our "bivouac Aladdin" at the foot of the great dunes of Chegaga can be part of one of our "discovery of the great Moroccan South" tours, or be included in an excursion from M'Hamid, or even for the most adventurous and. . . the best equipped, you can join us by your own means (essential 4x4, gps or. . . . dromedary and guide).

The adventure begins at the moment of leaving the asphalt to experience the first strong sensations during the crossing in 4x4 through the tracks of the real desert, where unreal landscapes such as Oueds (dry rivers), Regs, desert expanses of rounded stones and gravel, Hamada, plateaus of rocky slabs interspersed with more or less deep ravines, to reach the very wild and majestic Erg Chegaga.

Erg Chegaga is a vast region of dunes of fine amber sand composed of several very intertwined ergs, over an area of about forty kilometers in length and fifteen wide. Thanks to its difficulty of access, this region is still preserved from great tourism and remains wild. A fragile pearl that must be preserved.

 Staying in the Moroccan desert is a dream for lovers of wide open spaces, in search of the simplicity and authenticity of places and people. But it will also suit all those who feel the need to take a break from a hectic and often too stressful life, a place where they can allow themselves, in the face of an extraordinary sunset, to enter into communion with themselves by letting time and worries swept away by a fine rain of sand under the whims of the wind.

You will be welcomed in our bivouac with the generosity of the desert inhabitants, who will share with you, so far from your usual landmarks, their culture, their tradition, their way of life. (let's be honest, with a little more western comfort!).

You will sleep in Berber tents, eat typical dishes under the large khaima, share the tea ceremony sitting on the carpets in the heart of the bivouac, sing and dance to the sound of nomadic music around the wood fire.

Whether you are young or old, athletic or sedentary, you will not be able to resist the call of the great dune. Little by little, at the rhythm of your ascent you will notice the magic of the Moroccan desert operating and once you reach the summit you will feel very tall and at the same time very small in front of a hallucinating spectacle, on one side this sea of dunes with changing colours and shapes and on the other side the "green"; desert with its herds of camels and far away the mountains of the anti Atlas.
