Morocco
The Atlas Mountains provide Morocco with a rocky, 500 kilometre-long spine and also add geographical variety to this most interesting of North African countries. With peaks rising to over 4000 metres, the several Atlas ranges can boast a wealth of excellent trekking routes. These mountains are also home to the Berber people, a fascinating race who have herded livestock in the high valleys of the Atlas for many centuries. South and east of the Atlas, the landscape becomes increasingly dry. Here, there are several subsidiary ranges, on the edge of the great Sahara Desert. The Jebel Sahro is one such range, with 2500 metre peaks and a number of well established treks, perfect during the winter months. As well as its mountains, Morocco has a long Atlantic coastline, with lots of great places to chill out after a trek, such as the old fortified port of Essaouira. With its Berber, Arab and French influences, Morocco presents an interesting cultural mix, whilst the ancient, ochre city of Marrakech remains true to its romantic image. Each evening in its central square of the Djemaa el-Fna, dancers, snake-charmers, story-tellers and assorted tradesmen vie for the attention of the bedazzled visitor. Trekkers, mountain bikers, family and school groups can all benefit from this essentially low-cost adventure travel destination.
