4×4 excursion to Safsaf Wild Oasis with traditional Berber picnic

About this experience

The Saf Safari Oasis is about 45km to the northwest of Merzouga by track.

The track will take us through the hamada (black, stony and arid desert), rivers of sand, dry rivers (depending on the time of year they will have more or less water) and mountainous tracks of stone and rock. We will cross extensive esplanades where nomadic settlements abound, with vegetation from the African savannah, fields of acacias and small scrub. In the tour we will cross other oases, among which we can highlight the Tisserdmine, where we will make a stop to observe the fossil deposits.

The Oasis of Saf Saf is buried in a narrow mountain gorge ... very close to the border with Algeria.

It is spectacular after the rainy season as it collects the water that comes down from the mountains, bringing life to the Saf Saf Waterfalls that continue their way to the south, through the narrow channel of the river that runs between palm trees forming small sandy beaches perfect for bathroom.
