The Tassa Ouirgane day excursion will allow you to experience the beauty of the Ouirgage valley. Our trek sets out towards the east through fields of corn and barley. We will follow the river as it winds through the valley, and we meander up and down small hills dotted with red juniper. Pass by isolated Berber hamlets until we reach the old Jewish village of Anraz. Continue following the lush valley of Ouirgane to reach the last village of Tassa Ouirgane. Lunch will be enjoyed in the village. After a leisurely stop, we head out of the village via the main road, and through more fields and orchards of apples, peaches, cherries and apricots. Our path will take us near Marigha and then back to the hotel, where the evening is yours to reminice, and soak in the last light of the day.
