Full description
Take a journey back into time as you travel up the Atlas mountains along the famous and historic Berber Trail
Not only are they Morocco’s original inhabitants, but possibly as ancient as the world itself, the Berber people live their lives relatively unchanged and largely overlooked by the rest of the globe. The trek up the famed Berber Trail heads directly into this remote and beautiful world, situated high in Morocco’s Atlas Mountains. The adventure begins in four-wheel drive, bouncing along rough and rugged roads from Marrakech directly up and into the Atlas range. The wild, otherworldly beauty of the region lends a mystical air to the ascent as you pass through valleys and climb massive mountains. Quaint villages, ancient structures and, most notably, smiling faces dot the landscape, giving the sense of the history and close-knit culture that defines this place. Depending on the season, you may encounter lush vegetation and slopes covered with sheep, or impressive snow-covered peaks. Although the journey along the historic Berber Trail and its tribal villages and people are enough to leave you full of wonder, your tour of the grain mills at Tahanaout will underscore your sense of the simple and beautiful way the Berbers live their daily lives. You’ll leave the Berber Trail with your own moment in history and a true understanding of another way of life.
