About this activity

Trade the medina crowds for a 2-hour quad bike exploration of Morocco's stark Agafay Desert, starting and ending near the serene Lalla Takerkoust Lake with Atlas Mountain views throughout. This half-day adventure combines adrenaline-pumping off-road riding with desert solitude and traditional Moroccan hospitality—a rare escape within an hour of Marrakech.

Depart from Marrakech and head to Lalla Takerkoust Lake and the surprising Agafay Desert for 2 hours tour quad adventure near the Atlas Mountains. Your route will take you to arid hills, oases, and rivers…

Once you have reached the base, they are given a briefing on the safe use of quads along with the appropriate health and saftey equipment, goggles, hood, helmet, and raincoat are provided and will be in excellent condition.

The ride will begin next to the lake, and will continue until we reach the Agafay desert. Whilst riding to the Agafay desert the Atlas Mountains overlook the trails. You will follow the tracks of the Agafay Desert going over its stones and hills. The feeling of being all alone in the world will grip you in its lunar landscape. Then, we will wind up at an inn at the lakeside where you will be offered tea and water whilst overlooking the lake once again.

On the return to Marrakech you’ll enjoy sublime views of the Atlas Mountains.
