Located between the two extremes of the High Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert, "Agdz" means "resting place" in Berber, and it is not very far from the ancient route from Marrakech to Timbuktu. Nowadays, Agdz is one of those places where the mood is set through the desert, which is nothing short of spectacular, thus adding even more to its beauty.
Agdz is the place where the Draa Valley starts, leading to the longest and prettiest palm groves of Morocco, which are about 200 kilometers long. Tourists are welcome to visit Kasbah Tamnougalt, one of the oldest fortresses in the region, which is also considered to be one of the best-preserved; it provides breathtaking views of the green valley and of the date-palm trees growing in the valley below.
With so much history, nature, and tranquility, Agdz is the perfect stopover on the Ouarzazate-Zagora route. Plan your trip to discover the timeless beauty of this Moroccan gem.
