In 2006, after travelling 20,000 km by motorbike in India, Alex founded Vintage Rides. Since then, he has been developing our concept in more than 20 countries.
On the agenda
Embark on a breathtaking itinerary, merging two contrasting worlds that will captivate you from the very first moments. This adventure promises a complete discovery of the Atlas with its timeless mysteries. To the enchanting rhythm of the Royal Enfield Himalayan's single-cylinder engine, we set out to conquer the high passes of the Atlas, defying the aridity of the Sahara and discovering the endless Berber villages that adorn the verdant valleys. This Morocco motorcycle tour is a week-long escape that transports us into a total change of scenery, rekindling our desire to explore the central Moroccan High Atlas.
Berber Raid: Challenge the Moroccan Atlas

Your Motorcycle Trip in Morocco

7 stages - 547 miles
Arrival in Marrakech:
1/7 • Arrival in Marrakech:
You are welcomed at the airport before your transfer to the hotel. This first day is an opportunity to dive into the hustle and bustle of Marrakech, an ideal starting point for your Africa motorcycle tour. An ancient imperial city and cultural heart of Morocco, it is located a few miles north of the high peaks of the Atlas. Explore its fascinating architectural heritage, stroll through the lively alleys of the medina's souk, and savor your first local specialties. Overnight in a comfortable hotel in the city center.
Marrakech – Bin El Ouidane:
2/7 • Marrakech – Bin El Ouidane:
The adventure begins early in the morning as we set out on our journey to the Berber lands of the High Atlas. Today’s a long leg, taking us to Lake Bin El Ouidane. We leave the plains after an hour and a half on the road to climb the first slopes of this massive and stunning mountain range. In the afternoon, we put ourselves and our bikes to the test on several off-road sections and reach the Ouzoud Waterfalls, the highest in the kingdom. Then, in the late afternoon light, so perfect in Morocco, we wrap up this first leg of the journey at the Bin El Ouidane Reservoir.
124 miles including 37 miles of trail
Bin El Ouidane – Imilchil:
3/7 • Bin El Ouidane – Imilchil:
We head deep into the heart of the Atlas Mountains and gain altitude. After lunch, we’ll climb again and won’t drop below 2,000 meters until tomorrow afternoon. We’ll either ride to the colossal rock formation known as the Imsfrane Cathedral, followed by the Asif Melloul Gorge, or we may choose to take a little-traveled trail used only by local herders and farmers, which immerses you in the most authentic aspects of these mountains. Before ending the day in Imilchil, your guide may offer you an optional final detour to the granaries of Aoujgal. An unforgettable day in the heart of the magnificent landscapes of the Moroccan Atlas Mountains.
106 miles including 25 miles of trail
Imilchil - Dades Gorges
4/7 • Imilchil - Dades Gorges
A short morning loop to the northeast to explore the natural lakes of Tislit and Isli. Continuing our adventure due south toward the Dades Valley, we once again traverse the mountainous terrain, which never ceases to offer surprising variations, both geological and in terms of vegetation. Taking one of the highest roads in this mountain range, we are then captivated by the deep canyon that precedes the Dades Gorges proper. Even in the middle of summer, this journey offers refreshingly cool temperatures.
87 miles including 9.3 miles of trail
Dadès Gorges – The Happy Valley
5/7 • Dadès Gorges – The Happy Valley
We drive through the Dades Valley, which widens and offers a few interesting photo stops. Then a stretch of dirt road confirms that you’re indeed on the southern slopes of the High Atlas; shades of ochre and red dominate the landscape, where clusters of oleanders make unexpected appearances. After lunch, we’ll climb the highest pass of this trip (3,005 m), descend, and cross another pass at nearly 3,000 m, finally reaching the lush Tabant Valley, known as “The Happy Valley.” A day of adventure rich in diversity in the heart of these Moroccan landscapes that never cease to amaze you.
87 miles including 22 miles of trail
The Happy Valley – Marrakech
6/7 • The Happy Valley – Marrakech
Just because it’s the last day of riding doesn’t mean it’s over, or that we’re heading home! This leg of the journey is just as enchanting and fulfilling, taking us through a series of charming Berber villages nestled in a landscape where the blend of red and green vividly reminds us of the country’s flag. And one last mountain pass at 2,200 meters, absolutely stunning, before finally descending toward the plain, where we’ll encounter traffic and possibly heat as we approach the city. We’ll spend the night in a comfortable hotel and spend the evening in the old city to say goodbye to vibrant Marrakech.
143 miles including 56 miles of trail
Marrakech International Airport
7/7 • Marrakech International Airport
Depending on your flight schedule, you have time to enjoy a few more hours of Marrakech's many charms. Transfer to the international airport.

Primary assistance to reach the nearest medical center is mainly provided by our support vehicle, as means such as helicopters or ambulances are very rare.

As with any mountain itinerary, the quality of the roads and the difficulty of the route depend on weather conditions during and before the trip.
