Todgha Gorge

Overview of Todgha Gorge

The Todgha Valley (or Todra) stretches along the river of the same name for around fifty kilometres. It begins at Tinerhir with a mountain road winding through villages, some in ruins, as colourful as the towering cliffs forming the gorges, some of which reach 300 metres in height. The site is popular with climbers and, secondarily, hikers.
