Overview

A deeper Anti-Atlas journey

Tafraoute is one of southern Morocco's most distinctive landscapes: pink granite, quiet villages, almond valleys and huge boulders glowing in the light.

With two days, the route can breathe. We include Ait Mansour's palm gorge and scenic mountain roads without rushing back to Agadir the same evening.
