A morning at Lalla Takerkoust begins with the slap of quad tires on packed earth and the glitter of the reservoir at your shoulder. Guides run through a concise safety briefing, then the line of ATVs threads out from the water’s edge and into the open—lake light behind you, the Agafay’s stony plains ahead. Wind cuts across the saddle; the desert seems to lean forward, daring you onto its tracks.
