Vélodyssée du Maroc

The Vélodyssée du Maroc is a seven-stage mountain-bike adventure across southern Morocco, with the 5th edition of L'Originale running from 14 to 21 November 2026. Riders navigate the Anti-Atlas, stone deserts and the Erg Chebbi dunes using a roadbook and compass, including one walking stage pushing the bike through the sand sea. The event offers full mechanical and medical assistance, bivouac camps, on-course feeding and live GPS tracking. It is an immersive desert raid rather than a head-to-head race.
