Tafraoute day trip from Agadir
Tafraoute lies in a valley of pink granite boulders in the Anti-Atlas, surrounded by Amazigh villages and almond trees. It is a long day from Agadir, but a beautiful one, on mountain roads with almost no traffic. If you can, stay a night: see our 2-day Anti-Atlas tour.
How the day goes
Early pick-up and drive into the Anti-Atlas through Aït Baha, with a stop at the hilltop village of Tizourgane.
Arrive in Tafraoute and visit the Painted Rocks, blue and pink boulders first painted by a Belgian artist in 1984. Lunch in town.
A short walk in the Ammeln Valley villages, then the drive back to Agadir, arriving in the evening.

Questions
Is Tafraoute too far for one day?
It is about three hours each way, so it is a long day. If you have time, our 2-day Anti-Atlas tour lets you stay the night and walk more.
When are the almond trees in flower?
Usually in February.
