We took a day trip from Marrekech to the Atlas Mountains. We first stopped for a 45-minute camel ride. The camels kneel for you to get on and stand up once you’re on. The back legs go up first so you’re pitched all the way forward. Hang on! Here’s Leena just after the camel finished standing up.
I had to grab a selfie a few minutes in.
The guides took our cameras for pictures during a stop. Of course, everyone’s checking their own phones/photos. Ha!
Some villages inhabited by Berbers along the road.
After driving for a couple of hours we spied the stunning Atlas Mountains.
We embarked on a waterfall hike.
This is the second-highest peak in Africa. You know the highest, right? (Kilimanjaro.)
OK, the waterfall was a bit underwhelming, but the hike was lovely.
Bonus waterfall tumbling across the dirt road we took down.
We stopped for a late lunch in this Berber village before driving back to Marrakech.
