Discover the most beautiful sports of Marrakech

Sports

In addition to a multitude of cultural sites, Marrakech in Morocco also offers a wide variety of sports activities. This is why in recent years, more and more sports tourists have discovered the city as a holiday destination.

No matter if riding, motor sports or winter sports, everything is now possible in this paradise for athletes, as tourists have many dynamic sports activities.

1- Golf

If you arrive by plane, you will see from a distance the large green spaces, which will be examined more closely in the form of golf courses, since Marrakech has for several years played an important role in golf tourism in Africa.

Whether golf enthusiasts wish to make deductions on the driving range or at small tournaments, they play on the 18-hole golf courses, which are often created in the form of golf courses with hotels, the golfer tourist has the freedom and can arrive quickly to his hotel room. These golf courses are usually also a few connected tennis courts, where you can train the perfect service or improve your lapel.

2- Horse riding

Riding enthusiasts will appreciate the view of the vast enclosures where countless horses gallop. Local riding clubs also want to offer tourists an unforgettable experience during their Moroccan holidays. Enjoying the area on horseback has a special charm, but if you want a little more speed, the Royal Polo Club is for you.

Exclusive equestrian sport is practiced there and as a spectator during a tournament as well as during a private introduction to the club, polo sport will surely fascinate you.

3- Sports car

For those who are less inclined to equestrian sports and need more action during their holidays, the varied offers of motor sports in and around Marrakech are an appropriate alternative. Whether in one of the buggies, on a rented quad or in a rental car, with a motocross, there are many ways to heat the meadows and dunes and make daring jumps.

4- Marathon

You can then get in shape, like the annual marathon in Marrakech, where hundreds of runners from around the world crisscross the region to demonstrate their endurance.

5- Ski and snowboard

However, those who book their Moroccan holidays during the winter or spring months present unexpected opportunities in an African country covered, among others, in the Sahara Desert. In the Atlas Mountains, during this period, you have the possibility to use the winter sports facilities. The ski slopes and some ski lifts invite you to go skiing or snowboarding.

6- A hike

If you want to explore the mountains during the summer months, you should take part in a hike where tourists are guided by experienced hiking guides who visit the most beautiful sites of the Atlas Mountains. For example, visit Stone Age rock paintings or old residential towers, which are uninhabited today.
