The Merzouga dune is a place full of exoticism, but with all the services and the best hotels to make it an unforgettable experience.

The race is practically flat but we will enter two sectors with dunes to enjoy the experience. 

We will be staying in 4-star hotels but we will live the experience of doing a camel route to spend a night in luxury haimas in the dunes with all the comforts.

To ensure you have the best possible experience, we’ve put together all the technical information you need to know before you take part in the Dune Race.

- 125 positive elevation

- 125 negative elevation

- 90% dirt track

The circuit passes through the Hammada in 85% and 15% through the dune. The Hammada is a flat surface and easy to run. In the dune the pace is slower but the accumulated unevenness is not high, although there are short up-down slopes. 

The circuit is against-clockwise direction. There will be refreshment stations at Km 10, 15, 20, 25,30, 35, finish line. We have an opening, closing and sanitary vehicle. The closing vehicle is available if any participant wants to leave the race. Check out the photo gallery below to see the tracK!

The organization has looked for the best dates to have the mildest temperatures and avoid excessive heat-cold. A temperature is foreseen that could vary from 11ºC at the start to 24ºC at the finish line. The registration includes the corporate jersey!

To face the challenge in the best conditions we recommend you to wear trail running shoes, a cap, sunglasses and a sand shoe cover (only for the dune section). Check out the photo gallery below to see the equipment!
