Ouarzazate - Dades Gorges

Commence your journey at 8:30 in the morning from Ouarzazate towards the picturesque Dades Gorge. Along the way, witness the stunning Skoura Oasis, where ancient kasbahs gracefully stand amidst a backdrop of palm trees, although some are sadly in ruins. Continue your route through Kela’a M’gouna, known as the Valley of Roses, where you’ll have the opportunity to observe and admire the locally made cosmetic articles derived from the valley’s abundant blossoms. These products are highly renowned throughout Morocco. Embark on an off-road adventure, allowing you to truly immerse yourself in the landscape and visit Berber nomads, who will warmly welcome you with a glass of tea. Enjoy a delectable lunch in the Dades Gorge, followed by leisurely walks through the gorges, fields, and gardens. Spend the night in a comfortable hotel or Kasbah, or if you prefer, venture into the hills and experience an overnight stay with a Berber family.

From there, proceed to the Chebbi dunes, passing through Tinjdad and the Oasis of Tafilalet near Erfoud, renowned for its Date Festival. Rissani, the seat of the Alaouite family, the current ruling family of Morocco, is also on the route. Make a stop between Tinjdad and Erfoud to explore the fascinating underground water channels, providing cool temperatures and preserving this vital source of irrigation. In Erfoud, take a moment to witness the intricate craftsmanship of thousands of fossils transformed into various artifacts. Enjoy a delightful lunch in a Berber village along the way. Upon reaching the campsite, be greeted with a refreshing glass of tea before embarking on a memorable camel ride to the top of the dunes, where you can witness the enchanting sunset.
