Tissint to Tata

From Zagora we drove the N12 towards Tata, hitting a newly tarmaced stretch of road sandwiched between the Sahara dessert and the Atlas Mountains, following Morocco’s border with Algeria and Mauritania. There was no passing traffic here, and very few villages, and the landscape was like Mars in a science fiction film. We parked up and got out of the van and what was the most notable thing was the silence was deafening. Morocco is full of the sounds of birds and insects, but here, absolutely nothing. It was stunning. One of the best places yet.Weiterlesen
