La historia

From Marrakech, the itinerary moves beyond medina craft to give Beni Mellal its own chapter around Tadla plain city, then reaches Fes through steep medina lanes.

Marrakech shapes day 1 ahead of Imilchil through palace quarters; Imilchil holds day 7 ahead of Marrakech around altitude shaping access; Beni Mellal shapes day 8 ahead of Marrakech through Tadla plain city. Azrou uses day 11 before Marrakech for Middle Atlas market town near cedar country; on day 12 before Marrakech, Fes holds steep medina lanes.

Beni Mellal acts as the hinge through Tadla plain city; from Marrakech after medina craft, the itinerary crosses Marrakech-Safi, Béni Mellal-Khénifra, and Fès-Meknès using walking sections and overland road links, while keeping city and landscape around each table.

Keep current paths between Beni Mellal and Fes, equipment, and physical load and road closures between Beni Mellal and Marrakech and dated network duration live for the move beyond Marrakech; refresh the final details before Fes.
