Kasbah Bab Ourika
The Kasbah is in the centre of the picture with the cacti and Berber village in the foreground After spending 5 hectic days in Marrakesh we retreated to the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, being about an hours drive from the city. The last 3 miles was across a rutted track through a couple of Berber villages before we arrived at the Kasbah Bab Ouricka in the Ourika Valley. The Kasbah, being a large country house, is perched high on a ridge overlooking the Ouricka Valley and with splendid views of the Atlas Mountains. This was to be our place of peace and relaxation for the next 5 days. There was lots of rest and reading and in my case a couple of days of treking with a guide and companions from the Kasbah. A perfect break in the mountains following the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh
