More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The saddle rocks gently as eucalyptus scent slips through the trees and the Souss River murmurs at the trail’s edge. You push off a rutted track, the horse picking its way between shaded groves and open sand where the coastline breathes salt and wind. Flamingos wheel in the shallow estuary; on quieter stretches, gazelles and small antelopes might lift their heads and vanish.
