Peter and Sue Morocco Route
 
Hi Peter and Sue.
It was really good to meet up with you in Dent and to hear your tales of Morocco. Hope you got home alright. I was riding through a blizzard for the last 10 miles! As you probably gathered there was no chance of me remembering all the place names you mentioned but I'd really appreciate you taking the time to jot down on here the route you took as it sounds ideal for the trip we have planned later this year.
Many Thanks
Paul

Re Morocco route
 
Hi Paul ,glad you enjoyed the weekend! For the route ,ferry from algeciras to ceuta-tetouan-chefchaouen-ouezzane-fes-ifrane-tinadhite-midelt-er rachidia-erfoud (dunes at erg chebbi near merzouga to the south)-tinejdad-tinerhir (todra gorge)-ouarzazate (draa valley to zagora)-marrakech (via tizi n tichka pass)-asni-taroudant (via tizi n test)worth noting road not sealed on descent in november 2005 ,big drops,no barriers,-agadir-essaouira-casablanca-rabat-meknes-moulay idriss and north back to ceuta. I think this gives a good idea of what morocco has to offer,mountains desert and coast.Personally I have been three times and I enjoy the desert and mountains best,you can also travel by trails (of varying difficulty)most places.One you might like to try goes from erfoud to erg chebbi which is flat and easy and is better than arriving at the dunes by tarmac.If you want any more info about hotels places worth seeing etc you can get me on 07802367949 cheers peter
