The Gate of the Desert

by SirRichard - last update: Jan 28, 2003

The end of the road

52 days to Tombouctou
Zagora is known as the gate of the desert, as it is the last village before the Sahara Desert as you enter from Marrakesh.
It is really where the road ends, after that only 4x4 can go further into the endless sands. From here to Tombouctou is a 52 days journey by camel, as a famous road sign reminds us...
Location of Zagora

To arrive there

From Marrakesh there are many buses going to Ouarzazate and from there to Zagora. You can also fly to Ouarzazate and then take a bus or hire a car to Zagora,
