   Dades Valley

   The afternoon stop in Dades Valley is grounded in a folded valley corridor of orchards, villages, rock forms, and kasbah architecture where the road itself carries the story. The move from Ouarzazate to Dades Valley uses road-network stages; keep the afternoon here while keeping the later move to Todra Gorge separate, while protecting longer looks at changing streets and horizons.

   Alnif

   The afternoon stop in Alnif is grounded in an Anti-Atlas road town between Tafilalet and the Draa country, associated with stark mountain geology and fossil-bearing landscapes.
