Carved by the Dadès River in Morocco's High Atlas Mountains, the Dadès Gorges are deep canyons with steep walls lined with cedar trees and verdant vegetation. Springs feed groves of palm and almond trees, while irrigation sustains fields of wheat, fig, almond, and olive orchards. Located in Ouarzazate and Errachidia provinces, the highest point is 3 000 metres above sea level, narrowing to just two metres wide. A haven for hikers, climbers, and adventurers, the area offers opportunities for trekking and rock climbing, with caves for spelunking. Encounter breathtaking rock formations showcasing hues from tan to rust red, accessible via the Road of a Thousand Kasbahs. Historic kasbahs and Berber villages overlook the valley, some converted into boutique hotels. The area teems with wildlife like ibexes, Barbary macaques, and birds of prey.
