Salut

J'envisage de partir dernière quinzaine de décembre pour faire un parcours vtt dans le sud maroc (ouarzazate, djebel sagho, vallée du draa....). Je pense faire ça en autonomie (avec ma remorque Bob yak) et en solo.

Je cherche des infos pour affiner mon parcours et profiter de l'expérience de personnes qui auraient déjà fait ce genre de trip. Je cherche en particulier des infos sur les ravitos en eau, les possibilités de camping sauvage et l'état des pistes.

La cerise sur le gateau serait les coordonnées gps des parcours

D'avance merci

Je vais partir en trek dans la région de l'everest en octobre 04 et remonter la vallée jusqu'au Nangpa la, le col entre le nepal et le tibet. je cherche qq photos de ce col et aussi une carte détaillée. Et eventuellement un partage d'experience pour ceux qui y aurait deja été !!! 🙂

Bonjour,

J'ai fait un merveilleux voyage en Inde du nord et dans la vallée de Katmandu en février dernier.

Pour le sud, j'hésite entre l'Inde du Sud et le Sri Lanka. Pourriez-vous me donner votre avis ?

Merci

Bonjour à tous,

Je pars au Népal faire le tour des Annapurnas et me ballader dans la vallée de Katmandou dans très peu de temps, je me pose encore une question sur l'argent à emporter la-bas, que ce soit sur le trek ou dans la vallée. J'imagine qu'il vaut mieux avoir des roupies sur le trek et dans la vallée, par contre il vaut mieux avoir des euros dans Katmandou même non?

Et avec combien dois je partir !?

Vos conseils me seraient très utiles !!

Merci

Christophe

J'ai découvert la France a l’été 2003. Mon itinéraire a été ; Paris, Vallée de la Loire, la région Des Sables D’Olones et retour sur Paris. Ca ma donné le goût de revoir la France et l’Europe.

L’été prochain (2005) je désire me rendre dans le Languedoc-roussillon. J’ai acheté les guides Petit-Futé et le Guide Voir au sujet de cette région mais je désire en savoir plus.

Mon itinéraire initial était de prendre un vol de Québec a Paris, y rester 3 jours puis prendre le TGV pour Toulouse, demeurer environ 10 de jours dans le Languedoc-roussillon et revenir de Marseille sur Paris en TGV et reprendre l’avion pour mon retour à la maison à Québec.

Mais mes plans ont quelque peu changé. Le grossiste britannique Canadianaffair (www.canadianaffair.com, vols avec Thomas Cook) offrira des vols directs de la Ville de Québec à Londres (LWG) à partir de mai prochain à des prix défiants toutes concurrences. J’ai donc changé un peu mes plans. Québec-Londres, rester 3 jours à Londres, prendre un vol sur Toulouse ou Carcassonne avec easyjet ou RyanAir (a des prix très intéressants) et retourné sur Londres de la même manière mes au départ de Marseille ou Nîmes.

Donc mon problème n’est pas tellement la logistique au niveau du transport, mais quoi faire et que voir à Londres (en trois jours)et dans le Languedoc-roussillon (en dix jours).

Merci pour vos réponses

quelques nouvelles fraiches en provenance du népal.

nous sommes rentrés d'un séjour de 3 semaines au népal (trek pokhara-muktinah, chitwan, vallée de katmandou) nous sommes passés par l'agence "LES PORTES DE L'AVENTURE" avec 1 guide et 1 porteur pour le trek. aucun problème, pas de maoistes mais beaucoup de barrages de police.

pas beaucoup de touristes mais c'était pas la bonne pèriode à cause de la mousson.

Bonjour à tous,

Après un premier voyage organisé par une association culturelle au Rajasthan, Benares et vallée de Katmandu (vraiment extraordinaire, surtout le Népal), je voudrais continuer ma découverte de cette partie du monde mais j'hésite entre le Kerala/Tamil Nadu et le Sri Lanka. Pourriez-vous me conseiller et me dire si cela mérite deux voyages séparés sachant que je ne dispose que de deux voire trois semaines pour l'un ou l'autre de ces voyages car je suis encore en activité et les congés ne sont pas faciles à obtenir sur une longue durée. Merci de votre aide😎

Bonjour,

Je suis actuellement a Vancouver et je compte partir la semaine qui vient (cad demain) sur la vallee de l'Okanogan. J'ai pris ma decision ce matin (j'aurai pas de reponse pour un job avant vendredi) donc je souhaiterai avoir qlq conseils de ce que je dois voir (Kelowna, Kamloops, le desert, randonnee dans les parcs...?)

Auriez-vous une idee pour un circuit de qlq jours? Je comptes dormir en auberge de jeunesse car je n'ai pas eu le temps d'acheter du matos de camping (je sais pas si on peut deja camper de toutes facons...)? J'ai egalement l'intention de partir de vancouver en bus (greyhound) car j'ai pas l'argent pour louer une voiture (je pars seul). Est-ce un gros handicap sans voiture?

Autres questions: est-ce que les arbres sont deja en fleurs?

Merci pour votre aide/Vincent

Nous envisageons d'aller au Maroc au mois de mai avec un enfant de 5 ans pour découvrir la région de Azilal, vallée de la Tessaout, les Ait Bou goumez ... (C'est dans l'atlas à environ 100kms de Marrakech).

Pour cela nous aimerions quelques informations :

1 – Est il facile de trouver sur place guides et muletiers et organiser au pied levé un petit trek de 2 ou 3 jours (avec notre enfant) dans le secteur. Si quelqu'un à des coordonnées ou des références conseillables ?

2 – Nous aimerions également nous poser 2 ou3 jours dans un petit village chez l'habitant ou dans un petit hotel simple petit budget. Puis faire des petites balades à la journée sans forcément cette fois l'aide d'un guide ...

Est ce jouable . Y 'a t'il un coin ou un village bien propice à ce genre de chose.

3- Enfin j'aimerais connaitre votre point de vu sur ce projet en général sachant qu'il y a un enfant . Si quelqu'un connais éventuellement une région plus propice que celle-ci pour ce genre de projet, nous sommes preneurs (sauf le désert car on connais déja)

Merci pour vos conseils.

Bonjour, je vais au Nepal du 13 sept au 11 oct...donc apres la visite de la vallée de Kathmandou et un p'tit trek, je voudrais pouvoir faire une petite retraite de 5 jours meditative dans un temple boudhiste...connaissez vous un temple ou cela est possible?merci

I was lucky enough to spend two stays in Tajikistan between October and November 2025. I met Fayziddin, who’s a French-speaking guide and very knowledgeable—he really knows how to share his love for his country and his valley. He’ll welcome you to his village and, in the future, to a hostel that’s currently under construction. I can’t recommend him enough!

What are the main sights to visit on Rhodes itself or the surrounding islands, and what’s the weather like? We’re leaving on May 18th.

Hi everyone,

We’re planning a 13-day family road trip in Morocco this July, with six people in a Toyota Prado 4x4 (renting in Marrakech). We’ll alternate between bivouacking and small hotels/riads depending on the stops.

Here’s the planned route (in this order):

Marrakech → Ouarzazate → Draa Valley → Zagora → Erg Chegaga → Lake Iriki → Foum Zguid → Tata → Tafraoute → Aït Mansour → Tiznit → Mirleft → Taroudant → Back to Marrakech

Our goal:

Atlas Mountains + desert + dunes + plateaus + valleys + a bit of coastline. We’ll cover about 1,700 km in total.

We’re planning:

Bivouacking in the Chegaga/Iriki area Flexible for the rest (booking the day before or same day) Sand gear: traction plates, compressor, tow strap, roof rack

Questions:

Is the Zagora → Chegaga → Iriki → Foum Zguid crossing in July doable on our own (single vehicle, no guide)? Are there any truly technical or risky sections between Chegaga and Iriki? Does the overall itinerary seem manageable in 13 days without rushing? Any suggestions for great bivouac spots or particularly interesting stops along this route? The points on the route are provisional overnight stops. Some spots will include two nights in the same area.

We’re used to off-road driving, but not yet in the Moroccan desert. Thanks in advance for your feedback and tips! 😊

Here I am, 80 years old with two trips to Egypt already under my belt, but I still dream of deserts and a bit of adventure. So, I’ve bought my flight ticket for March 4th, returning on the 18th (arrival in Cairo). My itinerary: 05.03. GEM 06.03. FAYUM OASIS WITH THE VALLEY OF THE WHALES 07. & 08.03. WHITE AND BLACK DESERT 9 & 10.03. ALEXANDRIA, DEPARTURE IN THE EVENING FOR SIWA 11-13.03. SIWA, DEPARTURE IN THE EVENING FOR CAIRO 14-18.03. CAIRO THE ITINERARY IS MORE OR LESS SET.

Since desert trips can’t be done alone, I’m looking for a travel companion (male or female) for these parts of the trip, but I’m also open to sharing the entire journey. Everything’s negotiable as long as everyone’s clear about what they do or don’t want to do. If anyone’s interested in this itinerary, you can contact me via private message so we can get to know each other and see if our plans align. Just so you know, these desert trips are done with a 4x4, driver, guide, and all the logistics that come with it. All of that comes at a price, which is quite high if you’re traveling solo—that’s why sharing makes sense. Plus, traveling as a pair or even a trio is great for sharing the emotions of the journey.

I’ve got a lot of travel experience, and even at 80, I’m still sharp and full of enthusiasm to start this trip, which I hope won’t be my last.

Looking forward to hearing from you, Mimi

Hi everyone, We’re planning to spend 5 months cycling as a family in Central Asia. To align with the weather, we’re thinking of arriving in Uzbekistan in April, heading toward the Ferghana Valley in late April/early May, and wrapping up with a long stretch in Kyrgyzstan from mid-May to early August.

I haven’t really dug into the third part (Kyrgyzstan) yet, but from what I’ve seen on the forum and online, cycling across Uzbekistan doesn’t seem all that appealing: long, straight desert stretches with lots of trucks.

Has anyone come across any "hidden gem" routes they’d be willing to share? I’ve already noted that it’s best to avoid riding toward Tashkent. I’m looking for routes between Bukhara and Samarkand, and any nearby areas that are nice for cycling.

I’d love to fly into Dushanbe to reach Samarkand, but we all agree that it’s not a good fit for the season (early April) if we’re cycling, right?

Thanks for your feedback! Ludo

Hi there, After making good use of the tips on this site, I’m now adding my own contribution. We’ve just returned from 25 days exploring Mongolia. A trip that took us from the capital to the Gobi Desert, from the ancient capital Karakhorum to the Orkhon Valley, and also off the beaten path to places close to nature and nomadic life, all thanks to our guide Hacha. I’m used to traveling as a couple or solo, in "backpacker" mode, and I rarely—or only occasionally—hire a guide. But this time, I have to admit that choosing a guide-interpreter and a driver was an excellent idea. We set off as a group of four to share the costs. I’d spoken with Hacha, a Mongolian who used to work at the French Alliance, speaks perfect French, and has been organizing trips for over 25 years. Needless to say, she knows her job inside out and has built strong relationships with nomadic families over the years. Since she only works with small groups, she can steer clear of the main tourist spots. With her help, we were able to personalize our itinerary—and even adjust it as we went along. For example, we’d planned to attend the Naadam festival in a small town, but we found out there was another festival two days later that wasn’t on the schedule. So we tweaked our route to catch both, and we didn’t regret it. Anyway, if you’d like more details or Hacha’s contact info, feel free to reach out.

I’ve lived in Savoie long enough to tell you one thing: Vanoise National Park isn’t just a pretty postcard. Here, nature is vast, untamed, and incredibly alive. Whether you're visiting for a holiday or live in a nearby valley, here are my top picks you shouldn’t miss.

Sleeping in a mountain hut—the best way to experience the mountains

Hiking in Vanoise National Park is already magical, but spending a night in a refuge? That’s sacred. I recommend the glacier tour, a 4- to 7-day trek with stops at huts like L’Arpont, Dent Parrachée, or Leisse. The food’s great, you’ll meet other hikers, and in the early morning, when the sun lights up the peaks, I guarantee you won’t be thinking about your emails. Even a single night at Refuge du Fond d’Aussois or La Valette is enough to unplug.

High-altitude lakes: when the peaks reflect in the water

High-altitude lakes are a bit like my madeleine de Proust. I love climbing up early in the morning when everything’s still quiet. Lac Blanc, starting from Termignon, is a pretty accessible hike, often punctuated by the whistling of marmots. Wilder, Lac de la Glière near Champagny-en-Vanoise is one of my favorite spots for a picnic far from everything.



Glacial valleys—my breath of fresh air

I often go there to reconnect with the mountains, especially when I want a spectacular setting without hours of climbing. The Orgère valley, starting from Saint-André in Maurienne, is a gem. Easy to access, super wild, with its Swiss pine trees and singing streams... You’re instantly immersed in the alpine atmosphere. A little higher up, from Val Cenis/Termignon, I recommend the Cirque du Génépy. It’s an old glacial landscape just the way we love it: rocks smoothed by ice, near-total silence, and a real sense of the end of the world.

Glacier mountaineering at the heart of the ice

For the more athletic (and always with a guide, of course), climbing the Grande Casse, 3,855 m, remains a legendary goal. I’ve only done it once, but what a rush! You’ll need crampons, an ice axe, and good fitness, but the view up there is indescribable. There are also more accessible glacial routes around Pointe de la Réchasse or the Dôme de Chasseforêt.

Gateways to Vanoise National Park

Bonneval-sur-Arc... this little village perched at 1,835 meters, I never get tired of it. It’s kept its charm: stone houses, slate roofs, fountains... It’s simple, everything’s beautiful. It’s also a great base for hiking in the park. And then there’s Pralognan-la-Vanoise, my favorite gateway. It’s a mountain village just the way I like them—quiet streets, typical chalets, and above all, direct access to incredible landscapes.

Hi there, New to bike touring, I’d love to start with a section of the Via Rhona to explore and share (route to be decided). Looking forward to exchanging tips!

Hey everyone! I’m heading to Morocco in 2 weeks to climb M'Goun. Which side is the most practical for logistics, please? I’ll be hiring a muleteer/cook. I’m torn between starting from the Happy Valley (Agouti, Aït Bouguemez) or the southern slope (Skoura, Kalaat El M'Gouna). I tried to go 5 years ago, 2 weeks before COVID, and ended up switching to Siroua based on Willempsie’s advice, given the season... but mid-May should be fine now, right? Thanks for your help, Pacoloco

Hi there, Is the road connecting Imi n’Ifri (near Demnate) to Agouti (Aït Bougmez) paved and therefore in good enough condition for a rental car? Thanks!

Same question for the road descending the Tessaout Valley from Amezri. Thanks!

Hi, I'd like to do Ouarzazate-Telouet-Marrakech by 4x4 with one night in Telouet. What are the difficulties on the route? Thanks

Hi there, I'm currently planning our trip to Morocco for next May. We're looking to explore a part of the country we haven't visited yet, and I'd love to get some opinions or tips for my itinerary. We'll have a rental Duster to get around. -1- Marrakech to the Paradise Valley, arriving in the late afternoon. 2 nights there so we can explore the next day. -2- From Paradise Valley to Tafraout. Along the way, we'd like to visit some agadirs (Ikounka, Imeghguiguilne, Ighir, Tizourgane). I'm wondering if we'll have time to see them all, if we should visit all of them or skip some? Or if there are other suggestions? -3- I plan to stay 3 nights in Tafraout. Night 1 we might arrive late. The following days to visit the village of Tagdicht, the Blue Rocks, and the Ait Mansour Valley. Doable? Road or track conditions? Too much or too little time? Anything else to see? -4- I was thinking of taking the road to visit the underground village of Icht. Then heading to Tata to visit the Tollé and/or Messalites caves. Same questions as before (road conditions, time, anything else)? -5- Road to Tissint for a walk. Road to Taliouine to visit the Glaoui kasbah. Spend the night around there. Same questions? -6- Road and visit to the Ifri granary. Then head to a part of Morocco we already know :-)

Anyway, quite a few questions...

Since we've been to Morocco several times before, I know there won't be any issues once we're there. It's just that I'm trying to plan ahead a bit so we don't miss what there is to see in the area, without rushing too much ;-)

Hello, As a senior woman, I’m planning a 3-week solo trip (late April or early May) to explore the country by public transport, visiting the main cities (Khiva, Bukhara, and Samarkand), the Ferghana Valley, and if possible, the Aral Sea. I’m reaching out to the community to see if there are flights arriving in Urgench and returning from Tashkent—or the other way around? Thanks in advance to anyone with insights! 😉

Hi there,

Here’s my itinerary for a one-week self-drive trip in Morocco in March with family. Which direction should I take, please? - Start with Ouarzazate - Draa - M'Hamid - Tazarine - Merzouga, then return via the Dades road - Or the opposite: begin with Dades toward Merzouga, then head to M'Hamid via the southern route, and finish with the Draa Valley

Thanks! !

Hi there, I already know Morocco a bit (8th trip), but not much in winter (early January). Reading travel journals made me want to do the following 12-day circuit (10 days on site): Marrakech (my flight is booked) - Ouzoud Waterfalls - Tessaout Valley - Skoura - Aguinane Oasis - Taroudant - Marrakech

Has anyone already done this itinerary? We’re renting an ordinary car. Is the R307 road passable in winter? Same question for access to the village of Megdaz? And finally, can we reach Aguinane Oasis from the N10 without too much trouble? Is it worth the detour? Any other suggestions for the circuit?

Thanks in advance for your replies...

Hi there, I’m looking for 1 or 2 travel companions for the Pamir Highway in summer 2025 (dates to be confirmed). I’m 65 and have quite a bit of bike-travel experience. The route is flexible depending on preferences (Wakhan Corridor, Bartang Valley, etc.). Feel free to get in touch! !
