City in Morocco
Errachidia (ar-Rachīdīya) is a city of 92,000 people (2014) in the Saharan Morocco of Morocco.
Errachidia is of not much interest from a tourist point of view. It was shortly part of Rally Dakar in 2006 and 2007. The more significant tourist destinations of Erfoud and Rissani are about 78 km and 95 km respectively south of Errachidia.
Furthermore, the military use of this town gives it a clean and organized urban net.
Errachidia can be convenient hub between Ouarzazate and Merzouga on the national road 10. Otherwise, using the parallel route further south, you have to relay mainly on grand taxis between these two places.
Buses from Ouarzazate run once a day by CTM, 6 hours and from Merzouga every second day, 2½ hours. They stop at the 🌍 Gare routière (bus station).
Year-round flights from Casablanca, and seasonal flights from Marrakech and Paris arrive to 🌍 Airport of Errachidia-Moulay Ali Chérif (ERH ) (3 km north of the city centre).
