  • Depart from Marrakech and drive into the High Atlas Mountains to an altitude of 2260m.
  • Visit the UNESCO World Heritage site Ksar Aït-BenHaddou. The fortified village dates back ten centuries and is an excellent example of Southern Moroccan earthen architecture. The clay and earth used to build the town give it its deep red color. This striking hue is one reason this site has been used as a location and backdrop in many Hollywood movies.
