7 days vacation with 5 days trek in the Rose Valley of Morocco​

Trekking in the Rose Valley: a fantastic experience for  the nature lovers.

During this tour we walk with local French and English speaking Berber guides through the most Southern edge of the Atlas. We also get to know the Berber culture. You will be amazed by the contrast in het landscape. We walk between the dry mineral mountains and the lush greenery on the edge of the river. This part of the Atlas has long remained beyond modern times and you will spontaneously experience the richness of the Berber culture.

We spend the first night in a hotel in Ouarzazete (if you arrive with a night flight) or on arrival with a day flight: we drive directly to the Roses Valley and spend the night in a beautiful Kasbah.

The area is a labyrint of Valleys and Gorges where agriculture the main activity is. On the edge of the fields and gardens, countless rose bushes have been planted for use in the perfume industry. Morocco is one of the main suppliers of rose water to the French industry.
