Anti Atlas is the most exposed massif in west south, we reach it by the west of Agadir or by the north of Taroudant by the mountains of high atlas occidental. Anti Atlas means in Arabic the small Atlas , because the top is at 2500 m ( the highest point is Jebel Aklim),rich in their authenticity, you will discover their valleys, tresors, and specially their Berber people. We will traverse the old beautiful villages and the gorges, cretes, plateaux and summit in the field of almondier and arganiers, 2 wonderful trees in this region. The almond flowers in January, February and give fruit in July.
This trip takes you from Tafraoute near Agadir, through the stunning Anti Atlas Mountains and Ameln Valley, via different Berber villages and on to Tiznit, which is well known for the silver markets and walled town.
The drive from Tafraoute to Tiznit is one of the most spectacularly beautiful that you can make in Morocco. The amazing splendour of the Anti Atlas Mountains, the contrast between oasis greenery and barren mountain slopes and the bizarre lunar landscape around Tafraoute make this drive very worthwhile and memorable.
In the rugged Anti-Atlas country see the famous blue painted rocks by Belgian artist, Jean Verame.
The Ameln Valley (Valley of Almonds) offers some of the most spectacular nature scenes of Morocco, as well as some of the most beautiful villages. The Ameln Valley is known as the valley of 26 villages, all pink and red brick, nestling on the sides of the mountains.
See the unusual pink village of Aguerd-Oudad, which is built under a huge boulder eroded into an unusual formation, known as "The Hat of Napoleon".
