Morocco has also participated in the Winter Olympic Games on four occasions since 1968, but not since 1992.

Moroccan athletes have won a total of nineteen medals, sixteen in athletics and three in boxing. Hicham El Guerrouj, with two gold medals and one silver medal, and Saïd Aouita, with one gold and one silver, are Morocco's two multiple medal winners.

The National Olympic Committee for Morocco was created in 1959.
