Sand Dunes of Erg

Chebbi

Erg Chebbi is located in

the Sahara Desert. It is one of

Morocco's two Saharan ergs

(large seas of dunes formed by

wind-blown sand). The other is

Erg Chigaga near M'hamid.

The dunes reach a height

of up to 492 feet (150m) in places

and span an area of 31 miles

(50km) from north to south and

up to 6 miles (10km) from east to

west lining the Algerian border.
