In 2024, Morocco was the most distant destination of “The Sun Trip – Destination Sahara”, one of the most successful editions in the history of our adventures. In 2025, Morocco was the focus of a special edition, from Tangier to Laayoune—a project that achieved great success and that we aim to repeat every year in the spring, while evolving the route.,After a 2025 edition that crossed Morocco from north to south, we are proposing in 2026 a reverse route, starting from the Moroccan Sahara in Laâyoune and finishing in the capital, Rabat.
Stage 1 : Laâyoune-Tarfaya
On Monday, May 4th, the participants set off from Laayoune, the capital of the Moroccan Sahara, with the support of the local authorities and under bright sunshine.
A great travel atmosphere right from the start—and a strong headwind for the first 100 kilometers toward Tarfaya. A perfect way to warm up and test the endurance of both riders and batteries!
Many thanks to the Wali of the Laayoune Region for the support provided to the project.
A successful “Grand South” test for all participants, with more than 1,900 km still ahead—including 190 km as early as the second stage…
