Reserve Although the network of roads
Naturelle Sidi has improved considerably, the
TARFAYA Naila Akhfennir M'sied roads that cross the Anti-Atlas
Abetteh
between Igherm and Tata, and
between Tiznit and Tafraoute, are
long and tiring to drive because
they are narrow and follow the
As-Sakn contours of the mountainside. By
contrast, the 650 km (404 miles)
El Hagounia
Daoura between Agadir and Laayoune are
relatively easy to cover, except
when there are sandstorms. When
travelling through the Saharan
Al Gada
LAAYOUNE provinces it is extremely unwise to
Smara leave the road because landmines
Dakhla laid during the war between
Morocco and the Polisario Front
in the 1970s are still in place. The
border with Mauritania can be
crossed easily, as long as the
Tata, with many kasbahs and a palm grove required formalities are observed.
