More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A late-afternoon drive from Marrakech drops you onto the Agafay’s stony plain where wind-sculpted rock and low scrub open like a stage for sunset. The air carries dust and spices; quad tires kick up pale dust while camels move with deliberate patience. As light thins, the camp’s lanterns and a distant pool give the scene a human scale against the silhouette of the High Atlas.
