You can experience the feeling of being in the mountains. I recommend going at sunrise or sunset.

In summer, it's useful to have something to put on over your clothes. ❇️The desert sand has very fine particles, so sand always gets in your shoes. I recommend wearing shoes that you can throw away. It's better not to wear sandals as there may be scorpions. ◦⊹⋯⋯⋯⋯⊹◦⊹⋯⋯⋯⊹◦⊹⋯⋯⋯⊹◦⊹⋯⋯⋯⊹◦⊹⋯⋯⋯⊹ 📍About 60km from Erfoud 📍About 470km from Fez 📍About 580km from Marrakech 📍About 680km from Casablanca #Morocco #SaharaDesert #OverseasTravel #SoloTravel
