Why visit Foum Zguid?

This is a place for travellers who want time in the landscape: on a private 4x4 route, at camp or on foot. It is a quieter gateway to the Sahara.

Where the tracks lead

Routes from Foum Zguid cross Lake Iriki towards Erg Chigaga; Erg Lmhazil is better suited to a walking-focused experience.

Planning your stay

One full day offers an introduction. Two nights or more leave room for the tracks, sunset and camp. Pack sun protection, water, warm layers and closed shoes.
