Tour Overview

INTRODUCTION

Tizi-N-Tichka Pass

To travel in to the High Atlas mountains is to enter yet another wonderful Moroccan landscape. Fascinating Berber scenes, activities and happenstance encounters, well off the beaten track, higher and deeper into the High Atlas in in the Zat Valley.

The mountains rise almost sheer to high summits of ridges and sharp dramatic peaks. the N9 road snakes through the mountains, its construction quite an achievement in such a challenging environment.



In the many steep sided river valleys of the High Atlas, many traditional Berber villages and farms are seen, set in glorious landscape settings. Older buildings are of pisé mud, with flat roofs and small windows, the windows having attractive metalwork screens across them.

The fields are a fascinating mixture of vegetables, fruits, nuts, grasses and cereals, many still worked by hand and using horses/donkeys/mules.

​Activity is everywhere as people go about there everyday tasks. And if there happens to be a market day, be prepared for a clamour of activity and colour!

​The highest point of today's journey is the Tizi-n-Tichka Pass, a crossing point over the High Atlas at 2,260m. At such a height, the views are awesome panoramas, well above the tree line. Much evidence can be seen in the exposed rocks of their seabed origins and the immense forces that have raised the rocks up to such heights.

A Berber village is also visited where welcoming villagers will no doubt ask us in for tea and a snack; this is really seeing Morocco 'how it is"; you will be charmed.
