Hairpin bends · red walls · monkey-finger rocks — one of Morocco's most spectacular drives

Highlights

• Famous Hairpin Bends: Spectacular serpentine road that suddenly climbs after the villages — the photo everyone knows from Morocco
• Vertical Red Canyons: Up to 300 m high vertical sandstone walls in red-orange — bathed in golden light early morning
• Monkey-Finger Rocks: Bizarre erosion formations just past Aït Oudinar — giant rounded granite boulders also called "monkey hands"
