Morocco

August 2005

A very brief visit to Morocco, via Marrakech, and then into the High Atlas Mountains for a couple of days walking. We based ourselves in Oukaïmeden, about 80km south of Marrakech, which also happens to be a ski resort in the winter. 
Interesting, rocky walking, passing Berber villages along the way. Kids begging were a problem.
