Located only 30 km away from Marrakech, the Agafay desert will surprise you with its colourful landscapes and small Berber villages with the snow-capped Atlas Mountains in the background.
For an unforgettable half-day adventure, you can choose between several activities such as camel riding, quad biking or two-seater buggies, and for the more adventurous, paragliding from the Kik plateau.
You can have lunch or dinner in a nomad camp.
Agafay desert is located about thirty kilometres away from the red city of Marrakech, on the first heights of the High Atlas mountains. It extends over several hundred hectares.
You can admire breathtaking landscapes in a rocky and hilly environment, composed of sand dunes with white and ochre tones, which resembles that of a typical desert, such as the Sahara.
In the middle of this desert is an incredible oasis of eucalyptus, olive trees and vines, known as the Enchanted Oasis, which gets its vitality from a nearby wadi.
In this hilly desert landscape, discover the rich and flourishing Berber culture of the few mountain villages, and admire the panoramic views from the Kik platform.
Several means of transport are available to you to explore and enjoy the beauty of the landscapes of the Agafay desert: on camelback, horseback, 4×4, quad or even two-seater buggy.
Its proximity to the ochre city makes it a popular and increasingly popular getaway. Escape from the hustle and bustle of the Medina.
