AN OASIS IN THE DESERT - M6 Traditional Cache

Even though Tineghir (sometimes written as Tinerhir) is a good base from which to visit the Todra Gorge, it is also a very beautiful and relaxing place to stay.

The Tineghir palm grove is a must see, before or after a visit to the gorge.

The palmery is like a fantasy world in itself, with its many crumbling ksours (mud-like family houses) and miles of date palms blowing in the wind. It’s a comfortable place to just get lost. An interesting way to explore them is by renting a mule and a guide in town.

The ruined Glaoui Kasbah stands in ruin on a hill above the town. This a spectacular place to go at sunset as the view of the palmery is one of the best in Morocco (it is the largest and richest oases of the Moroccan South).
