May be Marrakesh has always been famous as a historical city or the closest one to the high Atlas, but if you try to look around you’ll find out that, you can also see the desert just nearby, and in case you don’t like big journeys this is the best way to see a desert, just an hour away.
- Agafay - Around 9am the trip starts heading south, between olive farms, but before, see the high Atlas, and then, finish with the Agafay desert area, that remains one of the most beautiful and also the closest deserts to Marrakesh .
This is a large and arid rocky hilly site that offers you the feeling of being in the desert but not away from Marrakesh.
- Imlil - On the way out from the red city you can already see the Majestic Atlas mountains in the background; especially some distant houses around, that belong to old families whoâÂÂve been there hundreds of years before, we cross Asni valley rich of different fruit trees such as apples; walnuts; quince; and cherries, carry on to the next stop where you can have an hour walk through the mountains of Imlil, a small town located at the foot of Toubkal, the highest summit in North Africa, where you can enjoy a delicious Berber lunch and admire the natural landscapes of the famous National Parc of Toubkal.
Once again we leave towards, the Takerkoust dam; and this will be the beginning of new landscapes, weâÂÂll be crossing the KIK Plateau to the Agafay desert, once on the spot it will be around 36 km from Marrakech, this is an area, that not many tourists know, and here you can join mountains and forests to desert.
