Erg Chigaga

Its takes a long time to get here but when you get there you will be able to enjoy the desert 🏜️ adventure. Ride camels, or explore the sand dunes in different ways. Good dinner. Our family enjoyed

Erg Chigaga is the real thing, real desert, with amazing dunes starting at about 60km (approx 1,5h driving with a local guide) from the last remote town. A couple of different desert camps give you the possibility to spent one or more nights deep in the desert. Most camps are Located just at the border of where these high dunes start. Definitely worth spending a day and night there.

Visiting Erg Chigaga has been one the best choices I’ve made when travelling to Morocco. The operator Desert candles organised everything down to the last detail, from the location of the camp, the food, the tents to all the facilities. I definitely recommend choosing Erg Chigaga over Erg Chebbi, the dunes are as high or even higher and you’ll experience the dunes with less tourist. (I booked a 3-day tour from Marrakech to Erg Chigaga with a guide)

I can highly recommend this place. Experience the Sahara sand dunes and desert environment. Depending on the time of the day, the sun gives beautiful different colors to the landscape. Climb a mountain of sand by foot and enjoy!

A fantastic place to hide from the world and become one with nature. Erg Chigaga is remote desert landscape that's harder to reach than the dunes of Erg Chebbi.

Such beautiful place, I have very fond of deserts and I also visit 2 days trip here and I enjoyed much better experience there. Good environment and adventure. I recommend you to all.

I had the pleasure of spending a few nights at the camp over New Years 2021 and it was one of the most memorable trips I've ever done. We booked the 4-day trip which turned out to be the perfect amount of time to drive out to the remote location and absorb the beauty of Morocco on the way. The camp and the surrounding sand dunes are breathtaking and the staff cooked amazing food with the bare infrastructure they had available. I would highly recommend this trip & the camp to anyone looking to absorb more of what Morocco has to offer besides the obvious hotspots.

Amazing hosts! They deserve all the respect and love! They were so helpful to us!
