Ait Ourir
Getting There
|
Ait Ourir Ait Ourir is located between Marrakesh and Ouarzazate (40 Kms from Marrakesh) and it can be seen on the way if you are going over the Tizi-n-Tichka pass. It is a typical Berber town with a very lively market on Tuesdays. Ait Ourir is crossed by Oued Zat, Zat river. Nowadays, it's nearly empty from March to December but we still remember its last fury (1986/87) when the bridge (called "bridge of Zat") and half of "Coq Hardy", a lovely "Auberge" fell down in the river. Having a walk into that river is a unique moment. The view of salty water's effects and a good opportunity to find nice ametists should make passers by have a break there.
