Our Support for Earthquake Relief
The recent earthquake in Morocco deeply impacted us at Campadounia. While our hearts were drawn to the breathtaking beauty of the Sahara, the news of families affected in the mountains left us unable to continue our operations as usual. In the spirit of solidarity and support, we made the immediate decision to donate all the tents from our camp to those who needed them most.
Seeing families huddled in the cold, their homes and belongings lost, was a stark reminder of the importance of community. Our tents, meant to provide comfort under the desert stars, will now offer a haven of warmth and safety to those in need. We know this means we won't be able to welcome you to the Sahara for now, but we believe this was the right decision.
This pause doesn't mean we're saying goodbye. We're actively working on securing new tents and resuming operations as soon as possible. Until then, we invite you to stay connected with us through our other websites:

You'll discover a part of yourself traveling through ancient communities on this Moroccan journey through the Draa Valley on to Zagora, then arriving in M'hamid, Sahara, the” Last Oasis Town. You’ll off-road to our dunes in Erg Birtam, and arrive at picturesque Desert Camp Adounia. You'll gather around the campfire with Sahara nomads, find inspiration on a camel ride in the Desert and enjoy seemingly infinite space in the majestic environment that is the Sahara Desert.
“Camp Adounia is a memorable place that will stay in my heart forever. I now have found a place that I can come back to whenever I need to refill my soul with love, calm and peace. ”
“When planning a retreat abroad, let alone to Morocco, you want to be in the best hands to ensure that your guests feel at home, taken care of, and truly experience wanderlust in such a magical place. Emma and the entire Camp Adounia does exactly that; create a one-in-a-lifetime experience of culture, flavor, beauty, comfort, and pure hospitality. ”
“Our daughters enjoyed running through the sand dunes, sand boarding, camel riding and hanging out at the kitchen tent. We enjoyed being unplugged, catching up on some reading and seeing our kids just being kids, safe to play anywhere in the camp. The best part of our stay was the stars at night. We had the clearest skies so see the Milky Way and shooting stars. I have never seen anything so beautiful. ”
“Truly lived up to expectations…the staff were so welcoming, food great and sense of Peace profound.”

“Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.”
A Very Special Place
Our camp is located in Erg-Biertam, M’hamid, Zagora - on the permission of tribal elders who support our mission and ethos as an ecological and conscious camp. Biertam is a medicinal plant, used to treat and expedite the healing of wounds by the people of Sahara. Not without paradox - If a desert camel eats a biertam plant it will go blind.
