Atlas Mountains Beginners Mountain Biking Tour from Marrakech
1 day
About this activity
This tour starts with a scenic drive up to the snow capped Atlas mountains (seasonal) from Marrakech, and into the Berber life of Ourika Valley towards Oukaïmeden (one of North Africa’s favorite ski villages). You will be submerged in the gorgeous Atlas mountains with fresh verdant green trees all over. Follow your guide through the trails, exploring the land by mountain bike.
This tour can be a fast-paced downhill biking adventure that is suitable for anyone with basic bike-riding capabilities. Or alternatively, this can be a more gentle-paced downhill biking adventure, depending on your preferences. The professional guides on this tour know all of the bike trails and best roads so that you will be able to enjoy descents safely in a mountainous terrain.
The vast landscapes here are visibly stunning and you will pass goats, donkeys, and camels as you ride down the mountainside. The grand atlas mountains are the colors of the Berbers – reddish and orange earth tones you see adorning the adobe buildings, giving the impression that the entire city springs from the earth. The guides have spent many hours researching the best tours and paths throughout the high Atlas mountains so that you can enjoy breathtaking scenery.
A special safety support vehicle will always be nearby for your safety.
At the end of the tour, enjoy a classic Moroccan meal of salads, tagines, freshly baked bread, and mint tea before the drive back to Marrakesh where your tour ends.

A really pleasant ride down the Atlas Mountains with the guide, beautiful scenery and good beginners mountain bike terrain. Good giant bikes and sturdy helmets. Lunch was beautiful in a berba village and great way of relaxing away from the hustle of Marrakesh
