Some places to see while doing our Marrakech overnight desert trip to Zagora
Hight Atlas mountains
The High Atlas rises from the Atlantic Ocean in the west and stretches east to the Moroccan-Algerian border. The range abruptly lowers into the Atlantic and southwest, making a spectacular transition to the coast and the Anti-Atlas range. The range falls more gradually to the north, in the direction of Marrakech.
Jbel Toubkal, the highest point in the range at 4,167 meters (2.589 miles; 13,671 feet), is located in Toubkal National Park. The range separates the Sahara from the Mediterranean and continental zones to the north and west, and functions as a weather system barrier in Morocco. Snow falls frequently at the massif’s upper elevations, enabling for winter sports. In the High Atlas, snow can be found on the range’s northern slopes far into late spring. Oukameden, one of Morocco’s three main ski resorts, is located in the Western High Atls.
The basins of several river systems are formed by the High Atlas. The majority of the year-round rivers flow north, providing a foundation for communities. In the deserts to the south and plateaux to the east of the mountains, a number of wadis and seasonal rivers come to an end.
Zagora desert
Zagora, Morocco’s Sahara Desert Gate, is located at the foot of the Anti-Atlas Mountains and on the Draa Valley’s shore in South Eastern Morocco. The enormous Draa Valley, which is still home to various Berber tribes, is largely responsible for Zagor’s attraction. Zagora refers to the mountain that overlooks the city from the Draa Valley’s shore. Draa was the town’s ancient name. The town was not renamed Zagoro until the twentieth century, while some Bedouins in the area still refer to it as Draa in their everyday talks. When travelling from the sub-Saharan regions, trade caravans went via Zagora and the Draa Valley on their way to Marrakech.
