Nomadic lands
of Atlas

week - E/M)
From the crests
to the high valleys, we travel through the wildest part of the Atlas where it
reaches its greatest dimension not only in space but also in its majestic
landscapes.

Soukhmane share the land of the high plateaux, from Imilchil to the grand gorges
of Assif Melloul.
