What to do in Erg Chebbi

Of the Moroccan Desert's dune constellations, Erg Chebbi is one of the most incredible, its towers of sand reaching up to 350 metres high. Led by Berber guides who have grown up in the desert, explore the impressive expanse on long walks - and then sandboard down the face of some of the tallest dunes! When you get peckish, lunch in the shade of an oasis is just the ticket - and if you'd like to explore more, head out on a 4x4 desert drive, stopping at Erfoud to see the fascinating fossils from centuries past.
