On a trip through the Route of the Kasbahs in Morocco in 4 days It will enter us and allow us to enjoy one of the best known routes of one of the most fascinating countries in the world.
The Kasbash Route
The Kasbahs are citadels built in adobe, decorated with simple geometric patterns and represent the Berber culture.
Entering the Great South of Morocco, Ouarzazate is one of the most used starting points to go out in search of the best known and scenic kasbahs.
In this area of Morocco you also have the opportunity to discover several ksour, ksar in the singular, fortified villages surrounded by high walls as if they were castles.
In this area of Morocco the best known is the Ksar of Ait Ben Hadou, declared a World Heritage Site since 1987.
In Ouarzazate we will find the Kasbah Taourirt, considered another of the best preserved kasbahs of Morocco.
On this route you also pass through the Atlas, crossing the impressive Dadés Gorge, which takes the name of the river it travels. In this area we will find spectacular views, with the road winding between the gorge and abandoned kasbahs.
Another of the most tourist spots in this area of Morocco are the Todrá Gorges, from where you have stunning panoramic views of the valley full of palm trees, dotted with kasbahs that make this one of the Morocco's most beautiful landscapes.
Spring and autumn are the best times to travel to Morocco, although in this area and although during the day the sun shines, at night the cold is present, and also to travel to this area of the country, although we also have to have Keep in mind that prices for both flights and accommodation are higher than at other times.
*** As we explained on the second day of this trip, at the end and due to the difference of "times" that we had calculated with the real ones, the route we had planned when we wrote the preparations for a Route through the Kasbahs, in instead of being circular, passing the penultimate day through the Gorges of Dadés and Todrá and on the last day through the Valley of the Roses we had to leave it on a linear route, covering only the area of the Route of the Thousand Kasbahs and the Valley del Draa, leaving for another time this area to which we will surely return, expanding it with a raid in the desert. ***
