ADVICE :

For Morocco mountain & desert trek

The following advices are merely suggestions that will let travel in the best conditions possible along with your hosts. You can easily find one at your arrival and it can be really handy to cover yourself from the sun, the wind and the sand, and many other uses that you will discover later.

Walking boots. Depending on the season, it is preferable to wear all terrain sandals especially if you’re visiting during hot days (April, May, June, September or October). Solid boots with warm socks for the other months and for the Atlas mountains excursions. Plus a good pair of baskets would always be efficient.

Good sunglasses are a must have in Morocco.

Back-pack (Also easier to transport on camels that suitcases)

A quilt, temperatures can go as low as -5° (depending on the season)

Pocket knif (Leave it the airplane banker during the flight)

A lighter

Paper bags for daily waste

A good jacket

Cotton tights for the cold nights (recommended for winter in the desert)

For the Atlas : Good trekking shoes, a cap, a pair of gloves, impermeable clothes
