Dune Desert Marathon | Run in the Desert

5 Day Running Expedition Beginning Febuary 25, 2024

The Merzouga dune is a place full of exoticism, but with all the services and the best hotels to make it an unforgettable experience. Recognized events such as the Paris Dacar, the Titan Desert or Desert des sables have started from this enclave and we will have the logistics that support these competitions for the Dune marathon, half marathon and 10k.

The race is practically flat but we will enter two sectors with dunes to enjoy the experience. All participants will run with a geolocator and we will carry several support vehicles, although the circuit is easy to run and very visible.

We will be staying in four-star hotels but we will live the experience of doing a camel route to spend a night in luxury haimas in the dunes with all the comforts. This program runs for five days; from Friday - Tuesday.

This trip also includes the race and race servies, transfers from the airport, 4-star hotels, one night in haimas, and a route on camels. Learn about the program, regulations, and everyhting that this exotic desert running experience includes at our website Wildmarathon.com.
