morocco !!
 
Thinking about going there again october + november.... a small group would be good say 4/5:Beach:

Baz_Traveller 13 Jul 2022 21:35

I could be up for this.

Do you have anymore details?

TheWarden 14 Jul 2022 12:04

I'll be out Sept through to December, in a landcruiser though. Come and say hello if you see me.

Also available if you need a guide or support vehicle ;)

badou24 15 Jul 2022 09:45

Thanks for the offer ! but as i have done maroc many, many times i dont need a guide ! ( the only place that has escaped me is Figuig ! ) :palm::palm::palm::palm: K

TheWarden 15 Jul 2022 12:24

I though as much ;) I'm wandering across to Figuig with a group in November and taking in a few of the interesting sites hidden out on the Rekkam.

Trying to find a forgotten monument to a foreign legion battle that's rumoured to be near the border

badou24 24 Jul 2022 11:13

That sounds interesting............. good luck !
Can you still cut the corner on n10 and pass through Algeria ?

Tim Cullis 24 Jul 2022 11:45

Since the massive road renumbering in 2018 that Google Maps has totally ignored, the N10 is now the N17. You are right that Google Maps appears to show what it calls the N10 passing through Algeria, but that's not the case on the ground. Openstreetmap shows the N17 road staying within Morocco, as well as numbering it correctly.

The 2019 version of the Reise Knowhow map of Morocco shows both new and old road numbers.

Can’t do this Autumn but I’m up for a tour in the Spring. Reasonably experienced but nothing too extreme as I’m getting on!
Ducati Multi Enduro. Looking for some early interest.

morocco oct-nov 2022
 
I am keen to develop a plan for this year (other commitment next spring).

Need to know who is around and what approx dates. Likely meeting places. What sections as a group and others individual.

Do we develop a prospective group then consider details together?

Good day everyone!

I´ll be in Tarifa from around mid October and need to be in Agadir by mid November to pick up a passenger for a trip further south (not sure yet, how far south, Cape Town is the goal, but not at every cost (time, risk, ...))

I´d be in for some company along the way from Tanger via Atlas and eastern routes to Erg Chebbi. No routes set yet, open for suggestions. With a like minded (kite)surfer, I´d consider the coastal route down south, too,but would prefer a trip into the hinterlands...

First time in Morocco for me. Off-road and travel experienced enough to know what I and the car won´t do and how to avoid digging out of problems.

I´m (m45) driving a S2a Land Rover 109 Diesel, so highway speed is below 100km/h and speedy dune activities are limited.

Just reply via this forum or honk your horn, once you pass a smurf colored Landy in southern Spain.

Bye!

Looking at 8th/9th October ferry to Tangier Med then down to Eastern Atlas then around Marakech befor return. Any company considered and could change schedule to suit.

That´s a nice loop, but 1-2 weeks too early for me. I´ll be on my way through the Pyrenees by then, I guess.

Andrew66 8 Sep 2022 10:24

I am happy to meet up say 16/17th in Midelt to go over the Atlas. I will do the coast then to Marakech first then across to Midelt.
Or I could take a ferry a week later.

Andy

TodoTerreno 8 Sep 2022 13:41

Hi Andy,

that´d be a tight schedule for me.

I´d be still happy to meet up when ever paths and time tables fit, but 16/17th could maybe be my earliest departure from Tarifa.

My plan is to leave northern Germany mid/end of the 1st week of October (past holiday) and I´ll drive at least a week to arrive in Tarifa (Pyrenees detour planned), then I´ll need to sort some things there (+3-4 days) and would then cross over to Morocco, as soon as I´ll have a negative C19 test result (+1-2 days, weekends no tests in Algeciras, afaik) to enter the ferry. For the leg down to Midelt, I´d like to spare a few days, too (Chef, Taounate, Fez) just to enjoy the scenery.

Just let us keep in touch via WhatsApp (send # via personal message here, if still interested) and we´ll exchange locations once in a while. Maybe I´ll be able to catch up and we´ll have a fresh beer after a dusty day.

Kind regards

Andrew66 9 Sep 2022 20:03

That’s great. Exchange on What’s App and if our path cross then a drink would be welcome!

*Touring Ted* 9 Sep 2022 20:57

I'll be making my first visit to Morocco in Jan/Feb.

I will look forward to any updates on this thread.:thumbup1:

Andrew66 19 Sep 2022 09:32

Plans now clear. Solo to Marrakech then looking for some company, leaving Marrakech on 14th October and heading to Erfoud. Happy to exchange contact details.

As I´m planning my loop clockwise (Tanger > Fez > Merzouga > Marrakesch > Agadir) , we´ll probably run into each other in the south west or else. I´ll sent my contact details as soon as I´ll hit moroccoan soil and be able to make more certain predictions.

Enjoy your ride.

TheWarden 20 Sep 2022 23:52

I'm here until December.

There is an Overlander event being held on the 22nd October out in the desert. If your near Zagora/Merzouga at the time it will be good fun.

PM me for details

TodoTerreno 21 Sep 2022 13:47

Would be great to meet and exchange some tales. As soon as I can name certain dates, I´ll get in touch.

(There are lots of events coming up, expecting traffic, unfortunately I´ll be a little late for the spin off of the Santana Trophy, 8th-14th Oct, 1800km loop to Erg Cheggi)

TheWarden 21 Sep 2022 15:25

yes October is a busy rally month
