2 DAYS HIKING

The journey leading to the starting point of this 2-day hike around and within Paradise Valley immerses us in the heart of Ida Outanane and Berber culture. The route is astounding, and filled with surprises, and the ascent from the heights provides a majestic panorama of the region’s landscapes. Subsequently, various trails guide us through forests intertwined with argan, thuja, olive, and almond trees, highlighting the geological marvels and the harmonious blend of red and ochre hues in the rocks throughout the entire journey.

Upon reaching the heart of the valley, passing by the olive mill and the delta of streams, and then indulging in the clarity of water basins and a refreshing swim in pristine waters, it creates a truly picturesque experience. It’s time to partake in a typical and delectable tagine, exploring a variety of local products such as honey, olive oil, argan oil, and amlou at the home of a resident in a quaint Berber village nestled on the mountainside. Following the meal, the afternoon gently descends, guiding us past a waterfall, through a palm grove, cultivated gardens, and numerous bodies of water, surrounded by breathtaking views and the marvels of wild flora.

As the day concludes, it’s time to find refuge at the local’s home again, savoring a delightful Berber dinner, and relishing in a tranquil evening, completely ‘cut off from the world’…
