What to Expect
This tour will take us through some of the most challenging mountainous climbs and steep descents in the country, beginning in the High Atlas region and travelling to the gorge of the River Assif Melloul before claiming the Tizi-n-Tichka pass. We will pass through the local berber villages and the lake tilsit as well as the village of Imilchil, the home town of the yearly festival of the bride.
