Roc du Maroc - The Ultimate Test of Endurance and Character
Roc du Maroc is not a classic mountain bike race, but a special intensive challenge which demands the utmost both physically and mentally. During six tough stages participants face sand, heat, stone slopes and elevation changes. Only with a very thorough preparation, strong fitness and perseverance it is possible to reach the finish line.
Successfully completing all stages without medical or technical failure counts as a sizeable achievement - something few are given.
👉 Important: At 2026 The focus is again entirely on the “Challenge” category. The focus is deliberately on the experience, adventure and reaching the finish line.
Speed is NOT key....but not insignificant.
