RocDuMaroc – The Ultimate Test of Endurance and Character

RocDuMaroc is not a traditional mountain bike race – it’s an exceptionally demanding challenge that pushes riders to their physical and mental limits. Over the course of six gruelling stages, participants face sand, scorching heat, rocky pistes, and significant elevation changes. Only with thorough preparation, strong fitness, and unwavering determination is it possible to reach the finish line.

Successfully completing all stages without medical or mechanical failure is considered a remarkable achievement – something few can claim to have done.

👉 Important: In 2026, the focus will once again be entirely on the “Challenge” category. The emphasis is deliberately placed on the experience, the adventure, and reaching the finish line.

Speed is NOT the main objective… but it is not irrelevant either.
