4 Days
Fes to Marrakech
Start in the medieval labyrinth, end in the red city. The same legendary corridor, but the light hits differently heading south. The desert feels like a threshold, not a destination.
Your Route

Day 1
Fes → Merzouga
A full-day drive from Fes heading south through the Middle Atlas, passing through Ifrane and the cedar forests around Azrou, before continuing across the pre-Saharan landscapes to reach Merzouga.

Day 2
Merzouga
A day without roads. The dunes shift color as the sun moves—pink at dawn, gold at noon, orange by evening. You can walk to nomad tents where tea is poured without ceremony. Or drive to Khamlia where Gnawa music rises from the sand. Or do nothing. The desert doesn't require your participation. It just asks that you notice.

Day 3
Merzouga → Dades
West from the dunes. The sand releases you slowly. Todra's gorge appears—walls rising vertical, light slicing through. Then the road opens into the Dades, where rock twists into shapes that shouldn't exist. You sleep in a valley that glows copper at sunset.

Day 4
Dades → Marrakech
The valley narrows, then releases. Ouarzazate passes—gateway facing both directions. Then the climb begins. Tizi n'Tichka winds upward through stone and shepherd country. By evening, Marrakech appears on the plain below. The descent feels like arriving somewhere you've always known.
