THE ROSES VALLEY
This route * is designed for a more relaxed enjoyment of a very special area, the Valley of Roses. Walking up the Mgoun River, we enter a landscape of red earth that contrasts powerfully with the green riverside farmlands. We pass countless villages, many of them crowned by adobe Kasbahs which draw us closer to the lifestyle and culture of the Berbers in this region.
