Tafraout, Atlas Mountains

Today we ventured deeper into the Anti-Atlas region, known for its spectacular natural rock formations and moon-like landscapes.
We checked into our hotel, dropped off our bags and set out for the weekly market. You could buy anything from carrots and clothing to chickens and tools.

We then visited Aït Mansour Gorge, a valley of pinky-orange hued cliffs with lush palm groves. Simply breathtaking!

Up next - lunch at the home of a local family. On the menu? Soup, chicken and couscous, fruit, cookies and tea.

After lunch we walked for a while amidst the rock formations and then drove to a site known as Le Châpeau de Napoléon, or Napoleon’s Hat.

We returned to the hotel, relaxed a bit and then had dinner with the group.Läs mer
