Erfoud

Filed under:

Erfoud

Erfoud is much like Er-Rachidia a French-built administrative town built in the thirties. The town, with its dusty red buildings, has a ghost town atmosphere but is surrounded by some of the best scenery in Morocco. The road from Er-Rachidia has some of the most spectacular scenery, with ancient Berber fortress set in palm groves as far as the eye can see.

Tourists usually come to Erfoud on the way to Merzouga , the most beautiful dunes in Morocco, or to explore Rissani , the last oasis village with an interesting palace. You may be lucky enough to experience a sandstorm, a totally surreal experience.
