The Palmeraie is a cultivated oasis on the Haouz plain, shaped by centuries of irrigation and small-scale agriculture that supported caravan routes to Marrakech.
Conservation
The grove is water-sensitive and under pressure from development; stay on established tracks, avoid littering, and support local guides who work within conservation norms.
