The climb actually starts pretty soon from Ouarzazate. This climb is the first of a 2-laning on the road from Quarzazate towards the town of Zagora, the last major town before the Sahara begins. With the High Atlas at your back and driving towards the Sahara, the landscape here is far from inhospitable. It is mostly vast and barren. And even in late autumn in November, it was hot here in the full sun. Shade is non-existent here on the way up.... read more

De klim start eigenlijk al vrij snel vanuit Ouarzazate. Deze beklimming is de eerste van een 2-luik op de weg van Quarzazate richting de stad Zagora, de laatste grote stad voordat de Sahara begint. Met de Hoge Atlas in je rug en rijdend richting Sahara, is het landschap hier al lang niet meer zo onherbergzaam. Het is vooral weids en dor. En zelfs in het late najaar in November was het hier in de volle zon warm. Schaduw is hier onbestaande op de weg omhoog.
