From Rissani we made an one day trip into the desert by 4wd. We arranged this trip at the Ennasra kasbah hotel in Rissani where we spent two nights before and after our bivouac in the Erg Chebbi .

From Erfoud we went into the black desert. We visited a tiny village (picture 1&3) close to the Algerian border. From the village we could see the Moroccan military buildings at the mountain ridge (picture 1&3).

There were no roads, only some sandy tracks (picture 4). Close to the village is a small palmgrove (picture 4&5), which give the villagers a mean of living by the production of dates. We were surprised about the white salty soil (picture 5).

Review Helpfulness: 2.5 out of 5 stars
