The High Atlas is North Africa’s greatest mountain range boasting soaring peaks, evocative Kasbahs, lush valleys and terraced hillsides dotted with Berber settlements where locals continue to lead a delightfully traditional way of life. For those favouring tranquillity in an off the beaten track setting, the valleys and villages of the High Atlas are ideal and we feature a number of such properties.
Approximately an hour’s drive from Marrakech, and in wonderful contrast to the city, is the fertile Ourika Valley where Kasbah Bab Ourika perches majestically at the apex of the valley boasting breathtaking views of the surrounding area. The busy little town of Asni with its lively Saturday market is the gateway to the Toubkal Massif, the highest peaks of the High Atlas, and set in the surrounding foothills is the Kasbah Angour and Sir Richard Branson’s magical retreat, the luxurious Kasbah Tamadot with its beautiful lush gardens and magnificent views.
