8 Remarkable Landscape Features of Morocco

Morocco stands out in our travels as the country that has the widest variety of different and totally impressive landscapes that we have visited so far.

Take your time. We hope these images of exceptional scenery will inspire you to take your own Morocco roadtrip.


Endless Mountain Vistas

The panoramic mountain views of Morocco are just made for gazing at in wonder. The way they appear to go on and on forever is simply breathtaking.

River Valleys with Hidden Gorges & Lush Oases

With so much mountainous terrain, it’s small wonder that there are so many rivers flowing across Morocco. When the rivers flow, valleys are lush, fertile areas. Often the flow is mostly underground, just right for the oases the country is famous for. Higher in the mountains, the river gorges are often carved out into spectacular canyons.

Striking Geographical Features

When you take a roadtrip through Morocco, you will sometimes find yourself gaping in awe at extraordinary and astounding geographical features. It makes you wonder what forces were combined to produce these unique formations.

Buildings Fade into the Landscape

Most of the buildings in the traditional Moroccan landscape are made from the material at hand – the soil and rocks. For this reason, they just seem to blend into the scenery; from the huge Ksar or Agadir built on top of a hill, to a tiny goat-herder’s hut.


Golden Moments

The colours of the Morocco landscapes are a big part of the attraction. They become particularly impressive in the Golden Hour of morning sunrise or evening sunset light.

Flowers & Foliage

At first, some of the landscape of Morocco appears to be barren; but keep looking and you will be surprised at the plants and flowers that flourish in the arid conditions. Many varieties of cacti can be seen, but also delicate flowers and the beautiful blossom of almond and cherry trees in the Spring.
