A day raid: from the lake to the Kik plateau
Our flagship day: we drop down to the Lalla Takerkoust lake, climb up to the Kik plateau facing the wall of the High Atlas, have lunch in a Berber village, then head back across Agafay's rocky terrain. Five hours of driving spread over the day, with real breaks.
