Ouirgane

Ouirgane is a small Berber village situated in a scenic valley at 1,000 metres above sea level in the High Atlas around 1 hour’s drive south west of Marrakech.

Ouirgane valley

Ouirgane buzzes with activity on Thursdays when Berber families flock down from the mountains by donkey to the souk. It has become a very popular base for day walks into the Tassa Ouirgane National Park and longer treks to Jbel (Mount) Toubkal and Amizmiz areas, and also benefits from a lake thanks to a recently constructed dam. En route from here to Taroudant, you travel through the spectacular Tiz n Test Pass, site of the renowned Tinmal Mosque.
