Morocco will be demanding with its complex stages but the days will be shorter giving ample time to experience and discover this amazing country.  In an around Zagora and Erg Chigaga teams will get a glimpse of touareg life and Saharan cultures before continuing onto the dirt tracks of the Sahara. The rally will spend a night around the secret thermal spring of Dakhla.

MAURITANIA
The rally will visit Mauritania’s most spectacular places with some classic destinations and pure Saharan driving.  Expect golden sand dunes, soft desert paths and fast salt flats.
