BRACE 100km Sahara Desert Trek
A breath-taking experience that will stay with you forever.
Take on the adventure of a lifetime with BRACE and Tribal Tracks
BRACE has partnered with award-winning group travel provider, Tribal Tracks, to launch a truly unforgettable adventure: a 100km trek across the Moroccan Sahara Desert.
Over the course of five days, this extraordinary challenge will see participants journey through Morocco's golden dunes, wild camp beneath vast starry skies, and experience the magic of desert life – all while raising vital funds to support dementia research.
With the support of local guides and Tribal Tracks, you and your team will have the chance to see the rich variety of the Sahara desert - and to kick back and toast your success at boutique hotels in Marrakech and Ait Ben Haddou either side of the trek!
Whether you want to join up solo, or as a group, this is a rare opportunity to take on a truly inspiring challenge for an important cause.
Your next adventure waits...
Your journey begins as you arrive into Marrakech, before transferring deep into the vast and breathtaking Sahara. Over the following five days, you’ll trek 100 kilometres across dramatic and varied terrain—towering dunes, sweeping stony plateaus, shimmering salt pans and hidden oases.
Life in the Desert
You’ll wild camp each night under giant African skies, surrounded by absolute silence and unspoilt beauty. Our experienced desert crew will accompany you every step of the way, trekking with camels and expert cameleers, supported by our trusted guides and the legendary cooking of Mohamed, our fantastic desert chef.
A Fitting Celebration
After completing your epic challenge, you’ll enjoy a well-earned celebration dinner in Ait Ben Haddou—the ancient ksar famous as a filming location for Gladiator. You’ll then travel back to Marrakech for a farewell lunch at a beautiful roof top restaurant, enjoy downtime to shop at a local souk, before you return home.
