Planning a trip to Morocco

Best season

Spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November) are best. Summer is extremely hot in the south and desert; winter brings snow to the High Atlas passes.

Roads & terrain

From well-surfaced mountain passes like the Tizi n’Tichka to rough pistes and sand in the south. An adventure or dual-sport bike suits the off-tarmac sections; fuel and water gaps can be long.

Formalities & tolls

Morocco is outside Europe — most riders arrive by ferry from southern Spain. You cross with a passport, complete a temporary vehicle import, and need insurance valid for Morocco (often bought at the border). Confirm current entry, customs and insurance rules before travelling.
