Atlas Mountain Adventure 4×4

Atlas Mountain Adventure 4×4

Go by 4×4 off-the-beaten-track to Deserts, Lakes and Mountains

AGAFAY DESERT: 
The excursion starts in the morning from Marrakech and your first adventure will be at Agafay, the closest desert to Marrakech.  A hilly barren landscape in the foothills of the Atlas, the Agafay Desert is a playground for quad bikers and buggy enthusiasts with a backdrop of often snow-capped peaks.

LAKE:
Next stop will be at beautiful Lake Takerkoust where we will have a Moroccan mint tea break. This lake is a popular weekend destination where you can go boating or take a little swim. 

MOUNTAINS:
From the lake we will drive with the 4×4 via the Kik Plateau to the little mountain village called Imlil. We will follow a little-used mountain road to Imlil where you will will have lunch at a local guesthouse. From here you will have a beautiful view of the Mizane Valley. After lunch you will meet a local guide for a 1,5 hour walk in the the area. After the walk you will transfer back to Marrakech.

If you do this excursion on a Saturday you will also visit the traditional and exotic weekly Berber market of Asni in the Atlas mountains.

There’s lots of opportunity for taking photos on this trip, so don’t forget your camera.
