Places to See and Stay: The Southern Oases Valleys - Morocco

Add to Travel PlannerDades Gorge, Morocco

Stretching south and east from Ouarzazate, the valleys of the southern oasis circuit are arguably the most beautiful area of the country. Towering gorges, steep canyon sides, verdant palm plantations and crumbling kasbahs dominate the landscape. A loop can be made heading out to the Erg Chebbi along one series of valleys and making your way back along an alternative valley. This is a journey through one of the more untouched areas of Morocco, and will provide some of the best memories of any trip to Morocco.
