Time to swap city buzz for mountain calm. We’ll roll out of Fes and head south, cruising past fertile valleys, cedar and pine forests, then into those raw, rocky landscapes that feel straight-up cinematic. Midelt’s the perfect pit stop on the road to the Sahara — a market town tucked between the Atlas and Anti-Atlas at over 1500m. Later, we’ll stretch the legs with an easy valley walk out to a local village, with the route picked to suit the group and the weather (aka maximum views, minimum stress). On the way back, explore apple tree plantations, fresh air, and enjoy a chilled evening in.
