Fully updated and including new routes, this full-colour 4th edition of Morocco Overland is a route guide to exploring southern Morocco’s spectacular landscapes – from the snow-clad Atlas Mountains to the dunes of the Saharan fringe.
This is a major update: the route guide has now been divided into eight regions. All the routes have been verified, loads of new ones have been discovered and logged, and there are over 20 new maps outlining scores of exciting trails (nearly double the previous edition) spanning 250,000 km² across southern Morocco’s fabulous mountains and deserts.With easy-to-follow routes ranging from sub-alpine trails to arid canyons winding past hidden Berber villages, and from the Atlantic surf to former Dakar Rally pistes, this comprehensive route and planning guide will appeal to both first timers and the seasoned adventurer.
68 detailed routes and dozens more tracks covering over 20,000km
Off-road routes for 4x4s, motorcycles and mountain/gravel bikes
Scenic byways suitable for all vehicles including campervans
Over 40 pages of colour mapping
Expert guidance on the choice and preparation of 4x4s, 2WDs, motorcycles and MTBs
Off-roading techniques
Advice on getting to Morocco including ross-country routes, ferries, immigration procedures, fly-drive for 4x4 and bike rentals
Route guide with downloadable GPS waypoints and each route is graded for suitability for big motorcycles and mountain bikes
Includes fuel stations and selected restaurants and places to stay
After three years and 25,000 kilometres in five 4x4s and seven bikes, here is the 4th edition of Morocco Overland. Whether in your own van, 4x4, 2 wheel-drive, on a motorcycle or a gravel bike, or are flying in to rent locally, Morocco Overland covers everything the regular travel guidebooks miss out to help make the most of your adventure in southern Morocco.
Since 1982 I’ve undertaken over fifty expeditions or tours through the Sahara from Egypt to the Atlantic by motorcycle, 4×4, M.A.N truck, Mercedes saloon car, bush taxi and with camel caravans. All this has enabled me to gain an unparalleled knowledge of the practicalities of desert travel across the entire Sahara both as a tourist, a driver, rider, trekker and as a tour leader. My books, Sahara Overland, Adventure Motorcycling Handbook (‘AMH’), Overlanders’ Handbook and Morocco Overland have frequently been described as ‘bibles’ for adventurous overland travel. Indeed, in 1997 I was the first to coin the term ‘adventure motorcycling’ to describe overland travel by motorcycle and which has since become the name for a best-selling genre of ‘SUV’ motorcycles.
