This pass leads you to Ouarzazate and the whole south-east region of Morocco. The journey continues after lunch at the Oulad Sliman kasbah.

If you chose to arrive in Ouarzazate: breakfast at the hotel. The Marrakech minibus (with part of the group) will pick you up at your accommodation between 11:30 am and 12:30 pm.
