Rated 5.0/5 on Tripadvisor

The Atlas Mountains cross Morocco from the Atlantic to the east. The High Atlas holds Jebel Toubkal, at 4,167 metres the highest peak in North Africa, and the Tizi n'Tichka pass on the road from Marrakech to the south. The Middle Atlas near Ifrane and Azrou is covered in cedar forests where Barbary macaques live.

The mountains are home to Amazigh (Berber) villages built of earth and stone, terraced fields and walnut groves. Valleys such as Ourika and Imlil are easy escapes from Marrakech.
