M'Hamid El Ghizlane
M'Hamid, Drâa-Tafilalet, Morocco
M'Hamid El Ghizlane, located in Morocco’s Drâa-Tafilalet region, is a remote oasis town often known as the gateway to the Sahara Desert. Situated at the end of the Drâa Valley, it was once an important stop on historic trans-Saharan caravan routes linking Morocco with sub-Saharan Africa. Today, it is the main starting point for excursions to the vast dunes of Erg Chigaga and other desert landscapes, offering visitors opportunities for camel treks, desert camping, stargazing, and encounters with traditional nomadic culture. Its palm groves, mud-brick architecture, and dramatic desert surroundings make it one of Morocco’s most authentic Saharan destinations.
