Agafay Trip Overview
27 miles from Marrakech, Agafay desert is a wonderful mineral desert with an exceptional micro climate, halfway between the mountains of the Atlas and the great plains of the Pearl of the South, and offers breathtaking landscapes. The weather changes very quickly here in Agafay and throughout the day colours, contrasts and atmospheres shift and swirl as if a master painter were at work. No sand dunes here, but soft rolling hills of pebble, stone and rock, although as you follow the tracks and hills of the Agafay desert you will feel the soul of the Sahara in this immersion into authentic nomad experience.
