  TELOUET on the track, Kasbah of Glaoui

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

 

After departure from Ouarzazate you take first the road to Marrakech and you follow the direction towards Aït Benhaddou, Tamdakte and the valley of Ounila, crossing many small villages.

The track starts at the other end of Aït Benhaddou and measures about 36 km, by crossing beautiful landscapes.


 

 

The village of Telouet is situated at 1870 m, on the south side of the High Atlas, in a high valley where it flows the oued (river) Imarene.

 

 

It is dominated by an imposing Kasbah, which was the chief’s residence of the powerful Glaoui tribe.

In 1860 the building of Glaoui Kasbah was beginning at Telouet.

 

It has been considerably enlarged during the half century when the Glaoui held a prestigious power in the South. Since 1960, the Kasbah is almost completely abandoned.
