Sahara Trek 2025

New date!

We had such an incredible response to the original Sahara Trek (16th to 21st October 2025) that it has sold out. As we’ve had people enquiring since then, we’ve decided to put a second trek. There are now spaces available to trek in the Sahara from 23^rd to 28^th October 2025. Read on for more information.

Would you describe yourself as open to adventure? Are you determined and adaptable to unexpected changes? If that sounds like you, then our Sahara Trek might just be the perfect fundraising challenge for you!

This is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the vast and diverse landscape of this iconic desert. Local Berber guides will lead your trek across ancient dried-up river beds, sand dunes and sunbaked plains. Camping each night gives you the chance to experience the stunning stars of the desert nightscape as well as the traditional cuisine of the Berbers.

Marrakech – Sahara
If staying in Marrakech we set off early, crossing the Atlas Mountains and following
ancient caravan routes into the Sahara, stopping for lunch in Ouarzazate on the way (journey time approx. 9 hours including stops.)

Days 3–4:
Sahara Desert
Our trek continues through the desert as we traverse sand dunes and rocky, lunar landscapes for the next two days. We are aided by our local Berber team comprising of the guides, cook and camel owners (the camels are our porters, carrying our luggage and equipment). Each day you will enjoy the varied Saharan landscape and
learn about how important it is to respect and comply with the forces of nature in the desert. On average we will cover 15-20km per day but this will vary. As the trek progresses we learn how the nomadic people of the Sahara live: from cooking to sleeping out under the stars and reading the magnificent Saharan night sky.
