The Fint Oasis Valley is surrounded by arid, rocky terrain typical of the region. The contrast between the green valley and the surrounding desert-like landscape is quite striking. The valley is fed by the Fint River, which provides water for local agriculture and sustains the oasis ecosystem.
You can experience traditional Berber villages in the valley, with mud-brick houses that blend into the landscape.
After breakfast, you can enjoy a guided morning walk in the Valley of Fint, taking in the serene landscapes and views of the High Atlas Mountains.
Later, you will drive back to Marrakech, which you will reach by late afternoon.
