One of the most beautiful car trips from Marrakech is the crossing of the High Atlas over the pass Tizi-n-Tichka. On the other side of the mountains invite you to visit the ancient kasbahs Anemitér, Telouet and the most famous, beautiful, but overcrowded Ait-Benhaddou. At the end of the day will wait for you the last part of the trip – downhill drive through beautiful valley with picturesque villages to Ouarzazate.
