Bin el Ouidane

Morocco's largest reservoir, enclosed by dramatic crimson Atlas cliffs — a hauntingly beautiful landscape reminiscent of an inland sea in the mountains

Highlights

• Red Cliffs Panorama: The reservoir is surrounded by sheer red sandstone cliffs — best seen from the dam road at dawn or dusk when the water turns gold
• Kayaking & Fishing: Clear freshwater teeming with fish — local guides offer kayak hire and fishing trips on the lake through the wooded inlets
• Aït Attab Valley: Small Amazigh villages on the southeast shore offer walks through terrace farming above the water with views over the entire reservoir
