Ramparts of Taroudant

The six kilometres of red-earth Saadian ramparts encircling Taroudant at sunset

Six kilometres of intact red-earth ramparts encircling a town that locals call 'little Marrakech.' The walls are Saadian — sixteenth century — and still define the city. Walk them at sunset when the Anti-Atlas catches the last light.

Taroudant is a stop on our Souss Valley route between Marrakech and the Anti-Atlas. We walk the ramparts at sunset when the walls turn red.
