A história

Read the itinerary through palace quarters in Marrakech, mountain road toward Bin El Ouidane in Beni Mellal, and Fes's madrasas in Fes.

On day 1 before Bin El Ouidane, Marrakech holds palace quarters; Bin El Ouidane holds day 3 ahead of Marrakech around reservoir and mountain base; day 6 reaches Beni Mellal before Marrakech for mountain road toward Bin El Ouidane. Day 9 gives Azrou, before Marrakech, room for southbound road; before Marrakech, Fes takes its day 10 focus from Fes's funduqs.

Leaving Marrakech after palace quarters, the geography of Marrakech-Safi, Béni Mellal-Khénifra, and Fès-Meknès unfolds through walking sections and road-network stages; Beni Mellal earns time for mountain road toward Bin El Ouidane, and the pacing leaves daylight around the trail.

Set the Marrakech to Ouzoud leg against current paths between Marrakech and Fes, equipment, and physical load and road access between Marrakech and Fes plus live network timing; keep the approach to Fes adjustable.
