Welcome back my Steemian friends to the part 1 of my MOROCCO DAY !

Today I arrived back in MOROCCO. I left with mixed feelings. On the one hand I missed home and my friends but on the other side I will miss DJEBEL SAGHRO side, the good weather and all the nice people I met. As promised here comes the second part of my MOROCCO DAY . Hope you are excited. Please fasten your seatbelts!

THE DEPTHS. LOSS OF VIEW OF LARGE WILD SPACES, ARIDES. A SORRY LAND MADE FOR SOLITARY COWBOYS. AND THOUSAND PLACES TO THE ROUND, SILENCE FOR ONLY COMPANION. AN ABSOLUTE PLENITUDE AND THE ENVIRONMENT OF TAKING THE ROAD. FROM PLATES EXTENDED TO VALLED MOUNTAINS, FROM RELIEFS TO THE ABRUPT CANYONS: PURE NATURE, ORIGINAL. THE CHARACTER IS STRONG, RUSTIC BUT THE HEART IS SOFT. THE COLORS TENDERS AND SUAVES. OCRE, ROSE, BROWN, PURPLE, THE NUANCIER IS LOCATED IN A DEGRADE OF PASTELS CHATOYANTS. HEAT IS CROSSING. THE FAR WEST IN THE REFLECTION OF THE MIRAGE? THERE WAS NO THING. ELDORADO IN THE HEART OF THE DESERT, RARE ARE THE OASIS. MODESTES VERDOYANT STAINS IN THE BIG INFINIMENT, IT'S THEM WHO REMEMBER THAT WE ARE ON THE AFRICAN SOIL. MOROCCO REGORGE OF TREASURES.

And that's what I discovered that day, another face of this country, further south. Landscapes always drier, a nature unconquered. This is my third stay in Morocco with Allibert Trekking. And this one does not resemble any other. A road-trip engraved in my memory, a team that wins. One of the most beautiful trails that we have traveled on this enchanting territory.
The day before, we landed in Ouarzazate. A sweet walk in the neighborhood of Taourirt, the souk and the markets. The mazes of the old town captivated us. Early in the morning, we leave Ouarzazate. Right towards the east that promises us mounts and wonders.

Skoura: the verdant palm grove and its kasbahs

Après une quarantaine de kilomètres, nous faisons une première halte dans la palmeraie de Skoura. Ici, nous marchons de villages en villages, appelés douars en arabe et nous photographions d’anciennes kasbahs en ruine. Avant la sécheresse, qui s’est accentuée ces dernières années, on vivait principalement de l’agriculture dans ces contrées. Et si on cultive toujours amandes, olives, abricots, figues, grenades… le tourisme a pris le relais. Aujourd’hui, il est possible de loger à l’abris de la palmeraie dans des kasbahs réaménagées en maison d’hôtes ou hôtels au de gamme. Nous finissons notre excursion devant la célèbre kasbah d’Ameridhil, qui illustrait auparavant les billets de 50 dirhams.
