NAVIGATION
You can choose to ride the track or the road, and if you go with a partner and choose the track, your companion can go in the assistance cars.
A genuinely trail route with forgotten roads, hardly traveled tracks, roads that become tracks or vice versa, which will allow us to delve into some of the most inland and unknown areas of the country. A layout specially designed for maxitrails, to get the most out of your mount and enjoy driving and the landscape to the fullest. We will also visit very interesting places from an architectural point of view (medinas, mosques, granaries...) and landscape (incredible oases, gorges...).
We have 3 guides, one for the road route and another two for the off road and off road pro routes. Every night, during or after dinner, we discuss the next stage. Depending on the degree of difficulty you can choose what to do, track or road.
The roads are selected to enjoy driving and perfect for your maxitrail. Occasionally there may be areas with loss of asphalt or sections of track to access some hotels, but they are always short sections. In addition, our guides will be there to help you whenever you need it.
The technical level of the tracks is very variable, as is the orography of Morocco, alternating mountain tracks with sandy sections, fording, hamadas, etc. Depending on the group, there will be different technical levels, being necessary to have a medium level for the off road group and a high level for the off road pro group. We will tackle technical sections of a very diverse nature, from mousetrap and stony tracks to stretches of sand and partial areas of small ergs and fesh-fesh.
Hotels have been widely contrasted over all these years, and we always choose those that have the characteristics that we like the most: that they are cozy and that they eat well. In some towns there are only one or two accommodation options, since we enter the interior of the country, but in exchange you will visit special places that are far removed from mass tourism.
We will take 2 pickups on the road, one with each off road group, with a mechanic and a doctor. For the transport of luggage we will take a van that will be in charge of carrying your bag every day until the end of the stage.
During off road routes we don't usually stop to eat, unless the stage is very short or we pass through a specific place where we can do so. In general, we usually replenish energy through energy bars, preserves, cured meats, etc. We also bring a fridge with beer and wine that we previously coordinate with the group.
Additionally and optionally, FOSILTRIPS will offer a course at a special price for participants who wish to do so at the Las Bridas farm, the base of the FOSIL OFF ROAD SCHOOL. During the weekend of the course, we will study the main obstacles and different techniques to face the different types of terrain that we will find during our trip.
This weekend could be a great opportunity to get to know each other and perfect your driving technique in an ideal environment and with the experience of the FOSILTRIPS monitors.
We have all the experience and logistics necessary to guarantee your safety and fun. We will explore some of the most attractive and unknown areas of Morocco, without forgetting some of the great classics. Also, during the rest day, we will have an agenda full of alternative activities for all tastes, from practicing in the sand to doing a bit of sightseeing or eating somewhere very special.
