Asni Ouirgane & The Atlas

Depart from Marrakech towards the Asni and Ouirgane valleys to experience some of Morocco's most beautiful countryside, including a striking lake set against the autumn landscape. 

This journey offers serene moments of relaxation alongside panoramic views of the region, providing an enriching look into the mountain lifestyle of the local Berber communities.

Asni is a picturesque village situated at an altitude of 1,150 meters in the center of the Tamarout cirque. It sits under the shadow of Jebel Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa at 4,167 meters. Surrounded by lush fruit orchards, this charming Berber village serves as a refreshing stopover.

Further along, the Ouirgane Valley—often called the "Happy Valley"—is astonishingly green, making it an ideal destination for nature lovers and hikers. At an altitude of 1,000 meters, the surrounding area features active salt works nestled within a landscape reminiscent of the Alps.
