Todra Gorges
The Todra gorges are a series of limestone river canyons, or wadi, in the eastern part of the High Atlas mountains in Morocco, near the town of Tinerhir. Both the Todgha and neighboring Dates rivers are responsible for carving out these deep cliff-sided canyons, on their final 40 kilometers through the mountains. The height of the canyon walls can vary, but in some places can be up to 400 meters high
The last 600 meters of the Todgha gorge are the most spectacular. Here the canyon narrows to a flat stony track, in places as little as 10 meters (33 ft) wide, with sheer and smooth rock walls up to 160 meters high on each side.
During the dry season, the canyon floor is mostly dry; at most, there will be a small stream of water. During this time, the wadi floor is easily traversed by travelers. During the rainy season, however, the Todra can expand massively, covering the canyon floor in a strong torrent.
Here I met a funny dog, named "Oro", - like money, they said. The owner was funny too, he said to me that I can bring his dog to lunch - but I had to eat the dog, literally haha!!
This is an incredible place, and if you are an adventurer or you love to climb mountains, you can’t skip this place.
