Been able to use it for years. I first drove on it in 2000, its a mapping glitch that shows it in Algeria. Its now the RN17 between Errachidia and Bouafa, then the RN4 to Figuig.

Stop of at Francois in Boudnib for a cold and good food

Nice little town to spend a day or two. If your heading east from Boudnib you can cut the corner on the main road by taking the RR602 past Mengoub Station.

I last did that route in 2012 and it was piste between the main road sections

Talking

Around there :0)

I make no claim that it is there- our friendly Morroccans could have transformed this site into a car wash, an underground storage facility, filled it in, etc! things can change pretty quickly in north Africa!
The first part of the fun is the research, whilst the second part is finding it once you are out there! ;0) it is a great way to interact with the locals and possibly be guided to a tasty tagine or somewhere where 'monsieur would like a tapis pas cher du tout'

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
