Day 2: Marrakesh - Essaouira (approximately 220 kilometers / 136 miles)
Today, you will discover the vast planes that lay between the Atlas and the ocean. Your ride will take you through smaller country roads to your first stop - the stellar coastal town of Essaouira. In the afternoon, you will visit the city, exceptional example of a late 18th-century fortified town, built according to the principles of contemporary European military architecture in a North African context and the favorite city of Bob Marley.
You will have the chance to explore the old medina, walk on the wide sandy beach, make a nice Segway ride or enjoy the laid back souks and stellar seafood.
Day 3: Essaouira - Agadir (approximately 150 kilometers / 94 miles)
Today’s ride will take us on one of the most amazing coastal roads of Morocco. We will ride through the Souss-Massa National Park, where you will also have the chance to spot the many goats climbing on the Argan trees. The afternoon we will arrive to our Paradise for the next two days, a fantastic surf and yoga retreat hotel with beautiful SPA facilities and on-site surf school, right on the beach.
Day 4 : Rest day in Agadir – optional visit of Paradise Valley
You can either enjoy your rest day taking surf or yoga lessons at the beach or opt for a short daytrip on the bike to Paradise Valley and the Cascade of Immouzer. This ride goes through small twisty roads along the river, offering unique scenery. We will then park the bikes and go for a short hike to explore the natural water ponds and even go for a swim if we want to.
Day 5: Agadir - Mirleft (approximately 140 kilometers / 87 miles)
In the morning, we’ll leave our hotel and cross the city of Agadir to reach the southern coastal road that leads us to Mirleft. We will head to Legzira beach where you can walk on the vast sand beaches and beneath the beautiful arches sculpted by the sea in the cliffs.
Day 6: Mirleft - Tafraoute (approximately 150 kilometers / 93 miles)
An early start will take us towards Tafraoute through small winding roads of the Anti-Atlas. We will ride the smaller national roads where twists and turns become more and more frequent as we approach the mountains. You will thoroughly enjoy this ride on roads where traffic is less common than around cities. Before getting to our accommodation and a well-deserved dinner, we will take the pistes to explore the famous painted rocks and enjoy an unparalleled sunset.
Day 7: Tafraoute - Taroudant (approximately 150 kilometers / 93 miles)
Another wonderful touring day awaits you full of twists and turns on less frequented roads, combined with beautiful surroundings as you ride to Taroudant. Your stop for the day will be in a riyadh in the village of Taroudant, where you can take a nice walk and there would be great opportunity to buy some Argan oil and the legendary Moroccan saffron growing around this area.
Day 8: Taroudant - Ouirgane (approximately 160 kilometers / 100 miles)
Everyone will love this day as we’ll ride on Morocco’s famous Tizi n’Test pass to climb over 2,100 metres in The Atlas. Our ride will take us through the High-Atlas National Park, where there will be plenty of turns and switchbacks to enjoy before we arrive to our stop for the night, the remote village of Ouirgane. A real chill out place, also offering endless hiking opportunities in the area.
Day 9: Ouirgane - Marrakesh (approximately 80 kilometers / 50 miles)
Today, you will continue your journey through the Atlas before descending to Marrakesh. During today’s leg, you will enjoy the amazing view of the High Atlas and the ride through the curvy roads on a perfect tarmac. You will spend the afternoon on a guided tour in Marrakech, to explore the Old Medina, the Jamaa el Fna square with the snake-charmers and its food stalls, the Jarding Majorelle, and there will be plenty of opportunity to buy some gifts and souvenirs. You can also opt for a relaxing afternoon by the pool, or refreshing spa treatments at the hotel.
