Trent's movements

18 Apr 2024 - Trent joins the pack in Spain

As we’d hoped, Trent continued heading northwards through Morocco and he took a relatively short overnight route across the water from Tangier to Spain, arriving just to the west of Tarifa.

Wasting little time, he headed onward and is currently in the foothills to the north of the Sierra Morena range in the Córdoba Province. He has covered approximately 330km (205 miles) since we posted yesterday.

17 Apr 2024 - Trent heads to the Med

Trent is continuing his journey through Morocco and having left the area near Rabat, he has moved north-east approximately 190km (118 miles) toward Tangier.

He is just over 40km (24 miles) away from the Straits of Gibraltar so all being well will make his next stop in southern Spain shortly.  

15 Apr 2024 - Trent makes capital gain

Trent crossed Western Sahara and headed 615km (382 miles) to Sous-Massa National Park just south of Agadir, on the Moroccan coast.

After a short rest and refuel he then carried on, covering a further 450km (279 miles) and is now in a lush agricultural region south of the Moroccan capital, Rabat.

10 Apr 2024 - Trent treks north

Trent has now joined the race north, as we'd anticipated. A journey of around 1,450km (900 miles) has taken him from Guinea, through south-west Mali and across much of Mauritania.

He is currently approaching the border of Western Sahara and is on a route that should see him crossing into Morocco soon.

08 Apr 2024 - Trent moves north

After lingering in south-eastern Guinea for a few weeks, Trent finally made a signficant move north in recent days and flew 224km (139 miles) to an area close to the Mali border.

He's currently near the River Niger, 47km (29 miles) south-east of the city of Siguiri. Hopefully, he'll be gearing up to cross the Sahara any day now...
