Hotels, riads, kasbahs, bivouacs, and hostels in Zagora

Zagora is located in southern Morocco, more precisely in the Souss-Massa-Draâ region , near M'hamid
It is surrounded by beautiful old kasbahs.
The desert is close and the landscape takes on a mineral splendor whose brilliance is reflected on the buildings.

The modern town of Zagora dates from the French protectorate, of which it was one of the administrative centers. However, the oasis had been inhabited for much longer, since it was from here that the Saadian expedition to Timbuktu departed in 1591. A sign in the center of the town indicates that it took 52 days to reach Timbuktu, whereas it took the Saadian army 135 days to get there.

Zagora is dominated by Djebel Zagora and boasts a vast palm grove. It is the starting point for many hikes in the region. The large market takes place on Wednesdays and Sundays.
