Jebel Saghro is a striking mountain range located between Morocco’s Central High Atlas and the vast Saharan regions. This remote and rugged massif is known for its unique, lunar-like landscapes, marked by dramatic peaks, deep canyons, rocky plateaus, and sweeping desert views. Despite its arid appearance, Jebel Saghro is rich in cultural heritage and life. Scattered across the mountains are traditional Berber villages, home to the Ait Atta tribe, one of the most respected nomadic groups in Morocco. In the open wilderness, you may also encounter nomadic families living in tents, surrounded by herds of goats and camels as they follow seasonal grazing routes. Jebel Saghro offers travelers a rare and authentic glimpse into Morocco’s nomadic traditions, far from the tourist crowds. Ideal for trekking, photography, and cultural immersion, this hidden gem is a perfect destination for those seeking adventure and connection with nature.
