Welcome to Episode 2 of my Morocco Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 motorcycle adventure!
Today we ride from Ouarzazate to Merzouga – a 365km journey through some of the most dramatic landscapes and diverse riding Morocco has to offer.
Merzouga is one of my absolute favourite places in the world. I’ve spent a lot of time here racing across the dunes with a roadbook, full rally navigation, and all the pressure that comes with competition. But this time it’s completely different — no racing, no time limits, no roadbook… just exploring the Sahara at my own pace on a Royal Enfield. And honestly, it feels magic.
Along the way we visit Gara Medouar, an incredible horseshoe-shaped rock formation sitting on a cliff edge with breathtaking views, and ride some fast open sections mixed with curvy roads that make adventure motorcycle travel in Morocco so addictive.
But the best part? As the day ends, we roll into the dunes of Merzouga, ride quad bikes for the first time, and then head deep into the Sahara to sleep under the stars in a desert camp. Sitting around the fire with sand underfoot and a sky full of stars is a feeling I’ll never forget.
