On the first day you’ll cross the beautiful Maider El Kbir plateau, passing rose dunes. The region is speckled with the tents of nomadic people, who move there after the first snow falls on the High Atlas Mountains.
After a challenging climb up Jebel Lamrakeb you’ll be rewarded with spectacular views of the multi-coloured rocky desert landscape. Walking through palm gorges, you'll join the dry Rhris River. You’ll then head towards an oasis of tamarisk trees. As you make your way to the dunes of Boulaàdam, you'll have the chance to visit nomadic caves and tents. You’ll spend your final day trekking along the Tikertouachene River, until you meet the main road where you’ll be driven back to Ouarzazate, for a final night of celebrations.
