Erg Chebbi Desert Camping // Morocco Overlanding II

Deserts in Morocco, we drove from the high Atlas down into the desert searching for the sand dunes of Erg Chebbi.
Out of the ordinary, into the extremes
In the second part, we come from the high atlas down into the desert.
Moving from Imichil in the high Atlas towards the Algerian border was a remarkable day driving, starting in the mountains at high altitude going to wide open lands with Oasis's and small city's felt like visiting two worlds within one day.
We where then moving from Boudenib along the Algerian border south to Merzouga, manly through dry rocky deserts through impressive rock formations spiced up with several sort off-road challenges. The track finally ended behind the impressive dune field of Erg Chebbi where we spend our first night in the sand and of course had a small sand storm… In Merzouga we met the guys from "lines_bus" and went with them towards Zagora. The track went over rocky terrain and several times through sand fields made out of the finest dust I've seen so far. This dust is finding the smallest gaps in the door seals and around the car to make it into the cabin, what a mess! In the end, we were amazed how far you can go in these conditions with a two-wheel-drive bus! Respect to you guys was fun to have you around! Of course, we had to pull them out a few times,but all of us were expecting worse!
Further on in Zagora we were reunited with Daniels, Nadja, Alicia, Manu and Ilja in their Defenders for the last dessert section through Erg Chegaga and a dried-out lake to Foum Zguid. Great fun playing in the dunes!
From here, we will go west to explore the coast but that's something for the next part.
...To be continued in part III
Enjoy the ride!
