From Foum Zguid to the Erg El Mahzil desert in bivouac
2 days -1 night


Day 1: Foum Zguid, track to the Laajermia oasis and bivouac dunes Erg El Mahzil

 

Embarking from Foum Zguid in a sturdy 4X4 vehicle during the early afternoon, our journey unfolds with a leisurely pause for picturesque photography amidst the serene Laagermia oasis, adjacent to its verdant source and majestic palm trees. Here, we indulge in the awe-inspiring spectacle of the arid lake beneath Jebel El Madouar, aptly dubbed “the tagine” for its distinctive silhouette. Traversing this expanse, we arrive at an inviting inn where a warm welcome awaits, complete with traditional tea, before proceeding to our next destination, Fossil Mountain.

Departing from the inn, our path leads us to encounter a seasoned camel driver alongside his faithful dromedaries. Guided by their rhythmic gait, we journey towards our bivouac nestled within the undulating dunes, where moments stretch into eternity amidst the pristine embrace of untouched wilderness. An enchanting camelback excursion atop the dunes culminates in a breathtaking sunset, painting the horizon in hues of amber and gold, a scene that leaves one mesmerized by nature’s grandeur. As evening falls, a convivial dinner by the fireside beckons, accompanied by the harmonious melodies and rhythms of nomadic traditions, fostering a sense of camaraderie under the vast expanse of the desert sky. After a spell of stargazing, retire to the comfort of your tent, lulled by the gentle whispers of the desert, for a tranquil night’s rest.


Day 2: Visit to the Sidi Abdenabi douar and Foum Zguid trail

Begin your day with a revitalizing dose of energy as you witness the majestic ascent of the fiery sun, igniting the sky with its radiant glow. Following this awe-inspiring spectacle, indulge in a hearty breakfast to fortify yourself for the adventures ahead.

Our journey resumes with a return to Zaouia Sidi Abdenabi douar, where you’ll embark on a guided tour of the oasis gardens, the ancient kasbah, and the revered tomb of the marabout. Immerse yourself in the rich history and natural beauty of this cultural enclave before setting off on a new path toward Foum Zguid.

As we traverse the rugged terrain, relish in the ever-changing landscapes that unfold before you. From the imposing Jebel Bani to the rocky and sandy expanses adorned with graceful acacias, each vista offers a glimpse into the diverse tapestry of the desert ecosystem. Along the way, encounter the serene presence of camels as they gracefully navigate their surroundings, a testament to the enduring symbiosis between man and nature in this timeless realm.
