Organiser's Description
Nicknamed the door of the desert, Ouarzazate is positioned in south-central Morocco, south of the High Atlas Mountains. This course will take you on a sensory journey, past Kasbahs, through traditional fortified villages, lush oasises and over rocky desert whilst being supported by the wonderful local population.
Taking part in early November, the climate conditions for the race should be temperate, with lows of 8°C in the evening and highs around 25°C during the day.

itinerary
Friday 3rd November
We advise participants arrive into Marrakesh Airport on or before Friday 3rd November for our 110km race. Coaches will be departing on the Friday 3rd from Marrakesh airport to Ouarzazate no later than 12:30 (tickets must be pre purchased online).
Race check-in will be open between 16:00-21:00 at the race hotel on the Friday. You must complete check-in where you will collect your bib and tracker.
Saturday 4th November
The first stage starts at 08:00 outside the Taourirt Kasbah in Ouarzazate – a 2 minute walk from the race hotel.
Competitors will be able to keep their main travel bag at the hotel, which will be stored securely throughout the weekend. Race holdalls (max 9kg) will be dropped in reception at the race hotel in the morning before the race starts. These should contain everything you would like at camp that night. They will be waiting for you at the stage finish line.
Sunday 5th November
The second stage starts from the campsite near Tazentout at 08:00. Again, your race holdall bag will be handed in before the start and available to collect at the finish line.
All participants will finish 5km west of Ouarzazate, in the Atlas film studios where the finish line celebrations will be occurring. We encourage everyone to enjoy the atmosphere at the end of the race and support fellow runners cross the line. There will be transport provided by Ultra X from 15:00 on a regular basis to take you back to the race hotel after finishing. Taxis will also be available outside the Atlas film studios which you will require local currency (Dirhams) for.
After party & meal
Celebrate finishing your race in style by joining us at the post race after party at the famous Berbere Palace Hotel in Ouarzazate on Sunday evening! Drinks will kick off at 1800, with a delicious buffet meal available between 1900-2100. We will be hosting an awards ceremony too for stand out runners. This is not to be missed and is included in your registration.
Monday 6th November
Participants are free to transfer to the airport on Monday with Ultra X
transport departing at 08:00 from the race hotel to Marrakesh airport. We recommend you book afternoon flights if you would like to use this option.
