Late afternoon light trims the horizon as the shuttle leaves Marrakech and the city’s noise thins into a wind that seems to push you toward the desert. The Agafay’s stony plains stretch out—low, rolling hummocks of compacted rock and scrub—where your quad’s tires kick up a cloud of ochre and dust. The sun slides behind the Atlas, throwing long shadows over the plateau and turning distant ridgelines to ink.
