More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You arrive at the stable late afternoon; the horses lift their heads as the valley light tilts golden. Under a wide, dry sky you mount gentle Berber horses and follow tracks that have carried traders and villagers for centuries. The trail threads rose fields, palm copses and adobe kasbahs, and the Anti-Atlas rises like a folded spine on the horizon.

Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes
The route includes rocky sections and farm tracks—ankle-support shoes or light boots keep you comfortable and secure in the stirrups.
