Attention! To complete this route (Monkey Fingers Canyon - End of the Dades Gorge Loop from Ait Ouglif), you must be able to climb! There are some sections that are not easy to navigate. Since we somewhat recklessly started this route in the late afternoon, we found ourselves in a very challenging section as dusk fell, where a local (rather spontaneous) guide found us and helped us. Further information can be found in Svenja's comment.

This is the route: Monkey Fingers Canyon - End of the Dades Gorge Loop from Ait Ouglif. Note: The route through the gorge is easy up to waypoint 7. From there on, some climbing is required. Between waypoints 7 and 8, you'll come to an inverted "C" on the route map. There, you'll need to climb over the large rocks and deviate from the route. You'll then rejoin the route. There might also be a path below the rocks. Be careful at waypoint 8; more climbing is definitely required here than at waypoint 7. There's a tree and then a large rock in the crevice. You need to climb up this rock, then turn right into the gorge. There you'll find an easy path up the rocks and can then follow a very pleasant hiking trail. If a local guide picks you up at waypoint 8, use the route described above. You'll rejoin the route.

Amazing view during a break

A wonderful experience with Jawad! Jawad accompanied us on a hiking trip to visit the Monkey Fingers. We really enjoyed our discussions with him as he speaks both French and English very well. The place is absolutely beautiful a canyon shaped by the mountains, very unique and different. We truly loved our hike and also discovered the nomads' way of life including their caves. I highly recommend this adventure with Jawad he is very experienced in hiking and offers several options at good prices. An unforgettable experience

Before embarking on this adventure, we did some research online and discovered that Jawad is an excellent guide in this region. So we decided to contact him, and frankly, we weren't disappointed. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and learned a great deal about the area and the significance of the visit. It's a magnificent canyon: we hiked for about three hours, followed by a pleasant break at a nomad's home for tea. We admired the stunning red rocks and explored the canyons. At the end of the hike, Jawad made us more tea, which was a very thoughtful touch. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who enjoys hiking in the mountains with Jawad. He has extensive experience, offers several tour options, and his prices are very reasonable. +212700767405
