   Tizi n'Tichka Pass

   This named pause in Tizi n'Tichka Pass stays specific through the High Atlas road pass on the Marrakech–Ouarzazate crossing, useful as a weather- and traffic-aware pause rather than a destination day. Use road travel between Marrakech and Tizi n'Tichka Pass, then settle into the afternoon with the onward connection to Ait Ben Haddou kept outside the visit, with the schedule built around long southern moves divided responsibly.

   Ait Ben Haddou

   This named pause in Ait Ben Haddou stays specific through an earthen ksar on the trans-Atlas corridor, best understood through its lanes, defensive form, and relationship with the Ounila valley. Use road-network connections between Tizi n'Tichka Pass and Ait Ben Haddou, then settle into the morning with the onward connection to Ouarzazate kept outside the visit, with the schedule built around ordinary roads kept separate from desert tracks.

   Dades Valley

   This named pause in Dades Valley stays specific through a folded valley corridor of orchards, villages, rock forms, and kasbah architecture where the road itself carries the story.

   Todra Gorge

   This named pause in Todra Gorge stays specific through a limestone gorge reached through Tinghir's palm belt, suited to an early walk before the onward desert road.

   Merzouga

   This named pause in Merzouga stays specific through a settlement beside Erg Chebbi where the useful rhythm is sunset, a quiet night, and a dawn that leaves room for the desert beyond a single photo stop. Use road travel between Todra Gorge and Merzouga, then settle into the morning with the onward connection to Erg Chebbi kept outside the visit, with the schedule built around road days broken by real oasis towns.

   Erg Chebbi

   This named pause in Erg Chebbi stays specific through the dune field east of Merzouga; ordinary-road travel ends at the village edge before local desert movement and conditions take over. Keep specialist desert-track travel from Merzouga separate from the visit; give Erg Chebbi the afternoon, without hiding another departure inside the close.
