Morning transfer from Marrakech airport to the Terres d’Amanar riding centre, presentation of the riding itinerary, saddling up, assessment of each rider’s level, and off you go, first through the hamlets of the valley, then over gentle hills onto a track
where the first gallops are launched. We will cross a few olive groves. Through the countryside, we finish the day below Souktana, the highest peak in the Kik region.
Overnight in a 5* guesthouse/Kasbah in Oumnast.

Day 2: Anwor Plateau

This is a beautiful day with plenty of opportunities for walking, and depending on the season, the guide will take you to the most beautiful places.

In the afternoon, we climb small hills and cross small villages and plateaus to return to our guesthouse.
Overnight in a 5* guesthouse/Kasbah in Oumnast. Approximately 4 hours
on horseback.

Day 3 – Entering the Agafay desert
We leave our accommodation after a typical Berber breakfast. We cross large desert plateaux and overlook the Oued N’Fiss before crossing it through abundant vegetation. The wadi flows all year round, allowing crops to grow on its banks. Then we cross the wadi and climb towards the Agafay desert! And here we are! The evening light really brings out the best in this desert. We enjoy some lovely walks through the hills before arriving at the superb and charming Inara camp! We take advantage of the last rays of sunshine to take a dip in the pool.
About 4h30 on horseback.
First night at Inara Camp

Approximately 4 to 5 hours on horseback.
Second night at Inara Camp

Day 5-Agafay Desert – Lake Lalla Takerkoust

We continue to enjoy this superb scenery before getting back in the saddle and heading west. We cross the hills that make up this desert before returning to a more wooded landscape. More and more olive groves and crops. Then the landscape descends towards Lake Takerkoust. Our last guest house is nestled in magnificent ‘Atlas pistachio trees’. You can enjoy the swimming pool and terraces for aperitifs and dinner in fine weather.
Approximately 4-5 hours on horseback.
Night in the Kasbah Beldi 5*.

Climate
The climate in Morocco is hot all year round, with very little rain. From December to
February, winter temperatures are around 20°C during the day and drop below 10°C
at night. March to May and October to November are generally very pleasant, with
temperatures between 20 and 30°C during the day and over 10°C at night. This tour is
not available in June/July/August due to extreme heat.
If you decide to visit the mountainous part of the route between November and
March, don’t be surprised to see a light layer of snow or ice!

Currency and tips
The local currency in Morocco is the Moroccan dirham. Your holiday is all-inclusive, so
we recommend you don’t bring too much money with you. At the end of your stay you
will have some free time in Essaouira, where you can enjoy and shop. Bring enough
cash to buy souvenirs and be prepared to haggle!
Tipping your guide is at your discretion, and will be greatly appreciated by the team.
