アンティアトラス山脈のおすすめライド

Bad road with some potholes and very rough asphalt. Only in the very north is a short, approx. 1km long section of this section perfectly and fairly newly asphalted. This then goes all the way to Tafraout.

Partly very bad asphalt, you have to concentrate but the beautiful mountain landscape is very distracting.

Good but somewhat rough asphalt (2024) with a magnificent view of the southern valley. A decent climb to the north. If you are not planning a round trip and just want to drive towards Tafraoute, I would recommend the eastern route. Although it is significantly further and there are several meters more altitude, the road is much better and the route is more scenic (partly the same but from above to see).

Neat but rough asphalt, occasional damage (2024). Little traffic (and if there is, mostly inconsiderate tourists) but a breathtaking landscape with a green valley full of palm trees, almond trees and other plants (unfortunately I wasn't able to take even remotely good pictures that adequately represent the beauty of the route, regardless with what aperture). So take a look at it live, you should definitely have driven here.

Mostly quite good but very rough asphalt (2024-2026). A very varied route that's well worth riding. I rode it uphill from north to southwest and would do it that way again. In Tassirt, you have to decide which of the two spectacular descents to take; I decided to ride both one after the other, and it's worth it. The southern climbs are relatively flat.

Mostly very smooth asphalt of mostly good quality (2024), spectacular gorge with lots of palm trees and very little traffic. Slight climb towards the south. Benches (partly shaded) are available for a break, and there are 2-3 water points on the road near Tafraout.

Excellent and, above all, very smooth asphalt (2024-2026). The best road around Tafraout, plus incredibly beautiful scenery! A pleasant incline heading south.

In some cases there is hardly any asphalt left (2024), a narrow strip of asphalt is more often interrupted by potholes or very wavy sand passages. Can still be driven with 25 tires.
