Tizi n’Tamazrt

The road to the summit, located in the high plains between the Middle Atlas and High Atlas mountain ranges is gravel. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. 4x4 vehicle required. The ride is rather remote, so you need to be prepared. In case of a breakdown, there is very little in the way of passing traffic or inhabitants around, and no cell phone service in parts. Menacing desert terrain with numerous steep, rocky climbs. Large, sharp rocks require tight maneuvering, increasing the likelihood of tire damage. High clearance, skid plates and differential lockers required. No stock vehicles. A complex network of poorly defined roads makes route-finding very difficult, even following a GPS tracklog. Very hot in summer. Carry plenty of water. Never drive this trail alone. The road climbs up to 2.918m (9,573ft) above the sea level shortly before the pass.
