Private 3-day tour from Marrakech: Berber villages and hiking around Imlil in the High Atlas, Lalla Takerkoust lake, a camel ride and a night in a desert camp in Agafay.
Nature, Berber villages and a stone desert: this 3-day private tour from Marrakech is the gentlest way to experience the High Atlas and the Agafay desert without long hours on the road. You climb through the Asni valley to Imlil, at the foot of Mount Toubkal, for a walk among walnut trees and earth-built houses and lunch with a local family. The next day the road drops to Lalla Takerkoust lake and the Agafay plateau: a camel ride, sunset over golden hills facing the Atlas, a Berber dinner and a night in a desert camp under the stars. Ideal for families, couples and anyone short on time.
