Highlights

As you journey from Marrakech, you’ll pass through Tahnaout, a charming market town nestled at the foot of the Atlas Mountains, where daily local life thrives against a stunning natural backdrop. From here, the trail leads you into a vast, lush forest that stretches between Tahnaout and Asni—one of the region’s largest wooded areas, filled with towering pine and cedar trees, crisp mountain air, and the peaceful sounds of nature. Riding through this serene forest offers breathtaking views over the High Atlas mountain range—a majestic panorama of rugged peaks, deep valleys, and expansive plateaus. The rolling Kik Plateau opens beneath you, dotted with olive groves and traditional Berber villages, creating a perfect contrast to the towering snowy summits that frame the horizon. This combination of vibrant village life, dense forest, and sweeping mountain vistas makes the experience truly unforgettable and uniquely Moroccan.

About Marrakech

At the foot of the Atlas Mountains, red-walled Marrakech is famed for its maze-like medina, lively main square and tranquil riads and gardens.

Jemaa el-Fnaa, the great square at the centre of the medina, changes character through the day, from juice sellers and snake charmers in the morning to smoke-wreathed food stalls and musicians after dark. The minaret of the Koutoubia Mosque rises nearby as the city's landmark, and the souks spread north in a warren of lanes selling leather, lanterns, carpets and spices.

Top-ranked sights in Marrakech: Atlas Mountains, Tizi-n'Tichka Pass, Jemaa el-Fna (Djemaa el-Fna).
