 GORGES  OF  DADES / on the track of Bouthrarar

 One-day CIRCUIT / with chauffeur driven off-road vehicle

 

 

The route passes by Skoura, the Valley of the Roses and the Valley of Dadès, all on the track of Bouthrarar, with its striking landscapes and canyons

 

 

 


- The Palm grove of Skoura

In this tangle of narrow paths which pass through the cultivations or the rose gardens, it may appear, in the shadow of the palm trees, some beautiful and noble kasbahs hidden in the greenery.

 

- The Valley of Dades :

This route cuts the Gorges of Dades and follows the oued through beautiful landscapes, where the clay buildings take the shade of the surrounding rocks. The valley dominates some quite populated villages, a following of ksours and kasbahs, which are situated above walnut and poplar tree gardens.

 

The route continues towards El-Kelaa Des M’Gouna, and forks towards Tourbist and Bouthrarar, beginning of the track (about 30 km) which leads to Aït-Youl.

Then pursuit towards the Gorges of Dades : the relief raises progressively and the road becomes more and more steep, dominating the oued Dades (river), bordered by cereals, almond and poplar fields.

 

The road comes then down again, and on both sides of the oued, the rocky walls are coming closer and closer and leave only a tiny bit of day light.

 Remark :   it is possible to visit in one day the Gorges of Dades + the Gorges of Todra, but this goes the long way round and it allowes not to take the track of Bouthrarar.

Furthermore, the Gorges of Dades are wilder and, in our opinion, much more attractive.

We suggest therefore the trip only to the Gorges of Dadès, which permits you to take the time to discover the beautiful landscapes of the track of Bouthrarar.
