Histoire

From Oujda, the itinerary moves beyond a compact medina to give Figuig its own chapter around remote eastern oasis of palm gardens, then reaches Oujda through Oriental region's principal city.

Before Jerada, day 1 separates rail links in Oujda; Jerada holds day 2 ahead of Oujda around industrial memory; Figuig shapes day 6 ahead of Oujda through remote eastern oasis of palm gardens. On day 7 before Oujda, Errachidia holds dune country; day 9 before Jerada keeps Oujda focused on Oriental region's principal city.

Oujda, Figuig, and Oujda make the span across Oriental and Drâa-Tafilalet tangible: rail links, earthen lanes preserve a distinct desert-border urban, and Oriental region's principal city stay distinct through trail stages, four-wheel-drive desert stages, and road-network stages, with daylight around the trail.

Set the Oujda to Jerada leg against current track access between Oujda and Figuig and four-wheel-drive support, path conditions between Figuig and Oujda, suitable equipment, and recovery, and road closures at Figuig and dated network duration; use the same discipline before Oujda.
