Dear Travel Mates,

I will be rookie in Morocco beginning of March and would like to share my plan as I’m open for any suggestion and have some questions. My bike will be a Transalp 650 with onroad tyre + I will be alone so no offrad plan. I checked a forum here , bought Chris Scott’s book, checked Morocco knowledgebase (thanks for it). I will have 10 days from and back to Malaga where my bike parking. I try to use R and P roads as much as possible but have to compromise due to tight timing.

Day1 Malaga – Asilah (Ferry to Tanger Med )
Day2 Asilah – Marrakesh (highway 530 km, evening city tour Marrakesh)
Day3 – Marrakesh – Tizi’n Test - Taliouine ( 242km)
Day4 Taliouine – Ait ben Hanou – Quarzazate (209km) (maybe up and down Tizi N’Tichka if have time)
Day5 – Quarzazate – Dara Valley – Tazzarine (270km) – or other city instead overnight in the region?
Day6 Tazzarine – Merzouga – (200km) – is the road N12 all tarmac between them?
Day7 –Merzouga – Azrou 370km (a bit long)
Day8 Azrou – Asilah (mostly highway 382km)
Day 9 Asilah – Malaga

My route a bit touristy I know and still miss Dades Gorge, Fes, Chefchauen etc – but most probably I will come back later again.
Question: The plan above only 9 days and has one spare day still in it. Do you have recommendation where to spend + 1 day and to do a round tour around (I’m thinking on Quarzazate) or to split day 7 and 8 to three days? Any other recommendation welcome. Thanks
