Escape the hustle and bustle of Marrakech and spend a day in the High Atlas at Kasbah Africa, Atlas Mountain Nature Retreat, relaxing and enjoying wildlife and wilderness in an idyllic setting. Only 80 minutes from the ‘Red City’, Kasbah Africa really feels like it is a world away. Built on the slopes of the fertile Azzaden Valley, facing Takerkhort Wildlife Reserve, the Kasbah enjoys a dramatic position on a bend above a fast-flowing mountain river.
Choose to relax and sunbathe by the infinity pool, explore the terraced orchards, spot birds, meet ‘Dongle’ the resident donkey, visit the tortoise garden or follow a river nature trail to nearby Torort Berber village. A delicious lunch is included, prepared by chef Brahim and served under willow trees surrounded by 360 degree panoramic views of nature and mountains.
