Stop At: Agafay, Agafay, Marrakech-Safi

The Agafay desert is a desert which is located about thirty kilometers from the red city of Marrakech, on the first heights of the High Atlas massif in Morocco. It is a reg that covers an area of several hundred hectares1,2. It is covered with stones and rockeries in a hilly environment composed of dunes with white and ocher tones.

Although the topography of Agafay is similar to that of a typical desert, such as the Sahara, it is not a desert in the true sense of the term, but rather a desert area of reduced surface3. Its proximity to the ocher city makes it a popular getaway with increasing popularity.
The Agafay desert includes an oasis of about seven hectares, planted with eucalyptus, olive trees and vines, nicknamed the enchanted oasis, which derives its vitality from a nearby wadi.
