Stop At: Agafay, Agafay, Marrakech-Safi

After lunch in our family house, we will head back to Asni Valley where we are changing the road passing through Kik plateau and by Takerkoust dam. After crossing a forest of eucalyptus, you will discover magnificent Berber villages before joining the closest desert to Marrakech. The landscape of the stoney Agafay desert is covered with rare wild flowers, wheat and barley, but during the summer it looks like a real desert with stony dunes and hills running down the majestic Atlas Mountains. A stop for pictures and tea is a must before heading back to Marrakech.
