Moroccan Sahara Desert tours to Erg CHEBBI, and Erg Chigaga Desert. Morocco desert is a big draw for many travelers. It pulls them into the heart of the Sahara, the world’s biggest hot desert. Nowhere else in the world does the desert show its greatness more than in Morocco. The famous orange sand dunes, surprisingly, make up only a small part of the Sahara here.

Deserts like the Sahara get very little rain, usually less than 250 mm each year. These dry lands can be either cold, like Antarctica and the Arctic, or hot, like the Sahara or Arabian Desert. Because of climate change and too many animals eating the plants, these dry areas are getting bigger, pushing away both the wildlife and the people who live there.

ERGS:

When thinking about a Moroccan desert, you might imagine big areas of sand dunes called Ergs. These are like the gems of the desert, showing its beauty. In the daytime, they look like wide stretches of golden sand with camels walking gracefully and tents providing some shade. When night falls, Ergs change. With the sky full of stars, campfires light up the silhouettes of stories shared by both travelers and locals.

One famous Erg is Erg Chebbi near Merzouga, a popular spot because it’s easy to get to and has many places to stay. Another one, Erg Chigaga, is hidden near the calm M’Hamid. It gives you a real and untouched desert experience, away from the crowds of tourists.

ERG CHEBBI DESERT:

Chebbi dunes are some of the best sand dunes to explore in Morocco. They’re easy to get to, making them a top choice for travelers worldwide compared to other sand dunes in the country.

These dunes, called Erg Chebbi, are found in the Moroccan Sahara desert on the southeast side of the country. They’re about 30km away from Erfoud and Rissani towns and 558km from Marrakech.

The Erg Chebbi desert is just one of many Sahara dunes in Morocco. It’s formed by sand blown in the arid lands of the Southeast, covering an area of 28km with dunes reaching up to 250m in height. These dunes have a reddish color that glows with the sunset and sunrise, creating a magical view for your vacation in Morocco.
