biking day trip in Atlas

Enjoy an active day trip while you are staying in Marrakech. However, this is a nice biking day trip to the Atlas Mountains. Then, you ride along trails and dirt roads to take in views of the valley landscape, and pass by Berber villages.

Mountain biking in the Atlas Mountains from Marrakech offers an exhilarating adventure through rugged terrain, scenic valleys, and traditional Berber villages. In addition, starting just outside the city, cyclists can explore winding trails that range from beginner to advanced, with stunning views of snow-capped peaks and vast landscapes. Moreover, the ride provides a unique blend of physical challenge and cultural immersion, as bikers often encounter local shepherds and farmers along the way. With its diverse landscapes and proximity to Marrakech, the Atlas Mountains make an ideal destination for mountain biking enthusiasts seeking both thrill and tranquility.

Itinerary:

After being picked up from your hotel in Marrakech, you will drive to the Atlas Mountains, specifically to Imlil Valley, where you will be met by a local tour operator.

After having a welcome tea at a guesthouse, you will get your bike and helmet, and set off riding on an uphill asphalt road towards Tizi n’ Tamatert Pass. From there, you will have amazing views over the Imlil and Imnane Valleys.

After a short break there, you will carry on riding on the same road to the last village, called Tachedirt village, situated at an altitude of over 7700 feet (2350m). Once you get there, you will take an unpaved road downhill, passing by many Berber villages such as Ouanskra, Ikkis, Amsakrou and Imsker villages. There you will have a stop for lunch before carrying on downhill to the town of Asni, which is the end point of your biking adventure.

You will bid farewell to the local team and be driven back to Marrakech. Your total amount of time biking will be about 4 hours. End of our biking day trip to the atlas mountains.
