Marrakech Day Trip To Ait Ben Haddou Via Telouet High Atlas Mountains
Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah Day Trip from Marrakech through the High Atlas Mountains. We will pick up you at your hotel/riad in the morning. Along the way through to the mountains, we will stop anytime you want to take photos and admiring the views in High Atlas Mountains, crossing a spectacular pass of Tizi-n-Tichka (2260 m alt). The Authentic Berber village of Telouet, once of the seat of the Glaoui rulers of this part of the Atlas and Southern Morocco, only 21 km off the main road from Marrakech to Ouarzazate, just past the top of Tizi -n- Tichka – sits pretty much in a valley behind Morocco’s, second highest mountain pass so it’s up pretty high in the mountains. Therefore, is an excellent spot to escape the summer heat – usually several degrees cooler or more than the heat of Marrakech and Ouarzazate.
