Around the valley




The valley of roses extends between Boulmane du Dadès and the valley of the Mgoun, high place of trekking and hiking. It owes its name to the presence of rose hedges developed to keep goats away from cultivated fields. In May, the harvest of the roses ends with the "moussem of the roses". Access to the valley is through a series of canyons dug by the M'goun wadi and Wadi Dades in ocher mountains offering a varied landscape in lush greenery. A long succession of traditional fortified villages and majestic earthen kasbahs, surrounded by invisible gardens where the rose grows, awaits you during this trek all along the wadi Mgoun. The trek in the valley is proposed with night in lodgings and kasbahs at the inhabitant.

Meeting with the Desert

Located on a plateau at over 2,200 m altitude, the village of Imilchil is known for its engagement moussem. According to legend, a girl and a young man from neighboring villages loved each other in secret. When they confessed their love, their family opposed it. The lovers fled to meet on a hill. Their tears gave birth to two twin lakes "Isli" (the fiancé) and "Tislit" (the fiancée) in which they drowned. Full of regret, their parents decided that once a year, their boys and girls could choose one another and get married freely. From this legend was born the engagement festival of Imilchil.
