Skoura from Marrakech: oases, kasbahs and dune country over 13 days

Marrakech sets the opening through Marrakech's gardens; at Skoura, the itinerary takes its central contrast from cultivated plots; the homeward chapter uses walking sections and road travel; the pacing preserves time for the valley before the dunes.

Histoire

In Marrakech, the opening is framed by palace quarters; Dades Valley changes the pace through orchards along the folded valley; Marrakech finishes with Marrakech's gardens.

Day 1 reaches Marrakech before Skoura for food stalls; before Marrakech, Skoura takes its day 5 focus from palm-oasis landscape of earthen villages and cultivated; Dades Valley uses day 8 before Marrakech for road itself carries the story. Todra Gorge shapes day 11 ahead of Marrakech through limestone gorge; Marrakech uses day 13 before Skoura for Marrakech's gardens.

Leaving Marrakech after food stalls, the geography of Marrakech-Safi, Drâa-Tafilalet, and Souss-Massa unfolds through on-foot links and road-network connections; Dades Valley earns time for road itself carries the story, and the pacing leaves time for the valley before the dunes.

Set the Marrakech to Telouet leg against trail conditions between Marrakech and Dades Valley, equipment, and daily effort and current road access between Dades Valley and Marrakech and network timings; give Marrakech the same fresh reading.
