The Experience

Before You Go

Hydrate and bring a refillable bottle

The park is at higher elevation and sun exposure can dehydrate you fast; carry at least 1–2 liters for the day.

Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes

Platforms and transfer trails are uneven and often dusty — supportive shoes improve balance during short hikes between lines.

Protect against sun and wind

Bring a lightweight sun hat, sunglasses, and SPF; mornings can be cool but exposed zipline runs amplify sun and wind chill.

Listen closely to safety briefings

Guides control all belays and harnessing — follow instructions for smooth transitions and to prevent unnecessary stops on the line.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Short viewpoint hike above the launch platforms for closer Atlas panoramas
  • Small roadside argan stands near Tahanaout where local women sell handmade soaps

Wildlife

  • Barbary macaque
  • Common raptors (kestrels, buzzards)

Conservation Note

The park emphasizes low-impact adventure and supports local cooperatives; visitors should stick to trails, avoid disturbing wildlife, and support local products to benefit the community.

Berber communities have inhabited these Atlas slopes for millennia; argan oil production remains a locally run craft that supports village economies.
