This 3‑day trek is a slow journey through dunes, open desert, and rocky landscapes—where you can hear the wind, follow fresh tracks, and feel how the land changes with every hour. Along the way, we explore two very different chapters of Morocco’s prehistoric story: Cretaceous fossils in the Kem Kem region and Devonian fossil layers near Erfoud.

You don’t need any experience. We guide you, show you what to look for, and explain what you’re finding—whether it’s a fossil in the rock or fresh tracks in the sand. Depending on the season and luck, you may also spot desert wildlife and learn how to recognize signs of life in this dry landscape.

Each evening, we set up camp and cook dinner together in the wild. After the meal, the desert becomes completely quiet—perfect for stargazing far away from city lights.

On the Safsaf day, if water levels and conditions allow, there’s also the chance to swim in the Safsaf oasis—a refreshing break in the middle of the Sahara.

Itinerary

Start from the Erg Chebbi area and trek toward Safsaf. Easy walking with plenty of stops for photos, wildlife spotting, and learning how to read tracks and terrain. Camp for the night near Safsaf.
