Location

2023 - The High Atlas, also called the Grand Atlas Mountains is a mountain range in central Morocco and rises in the west at the Atlantic Ocean and stretches in an eastern direction to the Moroccan-Algerian border. At the Atlantic and to the southwest the range drops abruptly and makes an impressive transition to the coast and the Anti-Atlas range. To the north, in the direction of Marrakech, the range descends less abruptly. The range includes Jbel Toubkal, which at 4,167 m is the highest in the range and lies in Toubkal National Park. It serves as a weather system barrier in Morocco running east-west and separating the Sahara's climatic influences, which are particularly pronounced in the summer, from the more Mediterranean climate to the north, resulting in dramatic changes in temperature across the range. In the higher elevations in the range snow falls regularly, allowing winter sports. Snow lasts well into late spring in the High Atlas, mostly on the northern faces of the range. The High Atlas forms the basins for a multiplicity of river systems. The majority of the year-round rivers flow to the north, providing the basis for the settlements there. A number of wadis and seasonal rivers terminate in the deserts to the south and plateaux to the east of the mountains. Erfoud is an oasis town in the Sahara Desert, in in the Meknès-Tafilalet of the Maghreb region in eastern Morocco. Due to its proximity to Merzouga desert village in the Erg Chebbi Dunes, Erfoud has developed tourist related infrastructures such as hotels and restaurants.

Errachidia is one of the provinces of Morocco, which is part of the Meknes-Tafilalet region, and the capital city of Tafilalt, important administrative, commercial, military and University Centre. Tafilalet is the largest oasis of the Moroccan Sahara which extends around the Ziz River. The landscape is dominated by red mountains, rocks and stone fields. Many oasis of Palm trees that produce the famous dates can be found in the middle of this dry environment. To the South of Errachidia is Erfoud, point of departure for the dunes of Erg Chebbi. At the end of the main street, the asphalt road ends and begins a long series of dunes that announce the desert. The highest, Merzouga, can reach the 150 meters high. It is here where they say that you can attend one of the most beautiful sunrises in the world.

the Race

The SKODA TITAN DESERT is a very special MTB stage race born in 2006 that takes place annually in the Moroccan desert. Open to all amateur the race annually hosts more than 400 entries from all over the world. With over 600 km and 7000 meters of climbing, a race to do in 6 days attracts hundreds of anonymous amateur athletes who seek it overcome their own limits and test themselves. Since its first edition the race has a large number of professionals or former professionals in sport participating and they are not necessarily from the world of cycling. In it have been riders like Roberto Heras, Abraham Olano, Laurent Jalabert or Melcior Mauri and athletes like Andres Jimenez, Marc Coma, Josef Ajram or Amparo Ausina. The raid consist inseveral stages as an endurance and orientation event for mountain bike (MTB) conducted as a Challenge, in which participants who arrive after the Control Time or drop out of a stage can start in the following stage, but without scoring in the general classification of that stage or in any other classifications.  In case of another arrival after Control Time or another dropout, the rider must resign from the race. The 2024 - edition will take place in Morocco from April 28th to May 3rd. The classic marathon stage where mechanical or physiotherapy assistance is not allowed and you sleep in a common Bedouin tent, corresponds to the fourth journey, while you will live again the Garmin stage, without any signaling and in which participants will be guided only by their GPS and waypoints provided by the organization.

The Škoda Titan Desert Morocco 2024 will start in Boumalne Dades on April the 28th and will end at its traditional finish line in Maadid, on May the 3rd. A format similar to the one adopted in 2023, with two very mountainous first stages, close to the Atlas Mountains. After that, the Titans peloton will move its challenge to the desert, with four long, rolling stages with different challenges each day. Key features, such as the Škoda Challenge timed section, which rewards 60 seconds bonus to the fastest female and mal riders to complete it; the marathon stage, in which participants will not have mechanical or physiotherapy help at the end of the stage; or navigation sections without track or marked course will return one more year.

At the sporting level, Manuel Tajada, sports director of the Škoda Titan Desert Morocco, has emphasized one of the great novelties of the 2024-edition: the time bonus for the winners at the finish line. “We want to give an incentive to the sprints. Every year we have more and more level among the leading men and women, so we have to find ways for strategy to continue to be a differential factor, in the same way that technique or physique on the bike is.”

It will be a very special edition in Morocco, where we will encounter the bivouacs, haimas (Bedouin tents), dromedary camels, mint tea and Tagine once again. The North African country hosted the event from its birth in 2006 until 2019, although the pandemic meant that the organization of the Titan Desert had to move the event to Almería in 2020 to be able to hold the 15th edition with guaranteed safety. Based on the experience of the Titan Desert 2020 in Almería, the organizing team will once more ensure people’s safety and health above any other consideration, to achieve a Covid-free race again.

RPM-MKTG CEO Jesús García says: "The Titan Desert will continue to grow, it will reach out to the world, crossing the sands of the most mythical deserts on the planet, but naturally without not leaving the Moroccan desert, which is the origin and the culmination of this great project for us. He announces that “we will reach out to three continents in 2021: Morocco (Africa) in May; back to the Tabernas desert in Almería (Europe) at the end of October/beginning of November, on similar dates to the edition held in 2020; and we will end the year in December in Asia with the Titan Series Saudi Arabia”.

This edition of the Titan Desert will be very special again. All the bikers have to finish in the best posssible time. This is a challenge that few have been able to complete, overcoming the desert, the heat, the distance and the physical effort required, all under the worst possible conditions. But the raid is not only for superheroes. It is for anyone willing to make the sacrifice and overcome the challenge. Mountain bike enthusiasts in good physical condition put both their physical and mental strength to the test. At the end of each stage the organization gives a trophy for the stage winner and a trophy and the leader maillot in each individuall classification. Wearing the leader maillot is mandatory for the leaders in the next stage. Orientation is a vitally import and aspect of the TITAN DESERT. Here we will explain how to use the main elements to guide you along the routes. The use of the roadbook, compass and GPS, recommended by the organisers, even more important regardless of whether you are out to win or just testing your own endurance by completing the course. In some parts of the stages you will be able to use your orientation to find better routes to move forward and the Check Points are mandatory and represented in GPS points (waypoints). The titans will rest in amazing camps, more than 22.000 m2. A bivouac with all the services they need in the middle of the desert. The participants will sleep in authentic berebers’ tents able to hold up to 3 people. In general numbers, the camps will accommodate more than 1.000 people (participants, assistances, staff and the mass media). Undoubtedly, the Titan Desert is more than a simply MTB race by stages. And it will definitely keep improving in order to be one of the best sporting adventures.

Categories

The TITAN DESERT is open to riders over 16 years old. Participation can be made individually, by teams of 3 riders (who can consist of runners of different categories and sex) or by teams of 2 riders of different sex.

If there is a category in the Titan Desert that reinforces the values of friendship and teamwork is the category CORPORATE, that appears for the third consecutive year among one of the most attractive options to compete in the race.  "For the companies, the Corporate category is a great opportunity to show a good image to their customers. "Sport, adventure, personal improvement and effort are values that the Titan Desert by GARMIN trasnsmite to perfection ", said the general director of the race, Félix Dot. Participants who take part in this category will compete in teams of three. The main feature of the class is that the whole team should roll together with a maximum allowed time of 2 minutes between the first and third team member in the checkpoints and the finish line. Teamwork is essential in a category which has own classification and which gets a great media coverage.

There is also a special AMBASSADOR CLASSIFICATION: “Become the best Ambassador of your town and export with pride the name of your city in the GAES TITAN DESERT by GARMIN”. Represent your city, town or village in this new category formed by teams of two participants, who must ride together until the arrival to the finish line.

The 16th edition has some interesting new features, such as a renewed ADVENTURE classification, limited to 60 people, for those participants who seek an even greater challenge with more self-sufficiency and less personal comfort. A metal trunk with restricted measurements (width 45 cm / height 35 cm/ length 80 cm) will be made available to Adventure classification riders so that they can put all the things they need for the 6-day race in it. Furthermore, they may not receive mechanical assistance or physiotherapy, except from another rider in the race (lending spare parts is not allowed) or from another Adventure classification rider. This is applicable either during or outside the race, and also to the lending of spare parts. The Adventure riders will have their own areas, one for rest and the other for bike repairs. Another novelty this year is the ROOKIE classification; two people (their gender does not matter) who must ride together, consisting of a Titan (who finished [at least] in a previous edition) and an under-25 (rookie) born between 1997 and 2005. The two riders do not have to be related.

Runners should bring supplies they consider necessary for overnight. And participants should sleep only in the allocated places in the marathon camp. The stages are cross-country races (raid type) with individual qualifying times that are accumulated to establish a general individual classification. The main developments in this new edition have attracted more MTB fans. The hardness increases with increasing stage mileage and the days of racing: from five stages in 2010 it grows to six stages in 2011 and from the 500km in 2010 to 600 km in the following editions.
