How often our hearts trembled as we heard the beat of the horses hooves crossing the road. How frequently we followed them with our ears until they trotted away in the distance. Then we would stay awake waiting , sometimes for a long time, until we heard them return.
Exploring the Atlas Mountains and its remote beauty on horse-back is an amazing and remarkable way of getting off the beaten track and relishing the spectacular sceneries of the region.
There are several, distinct options : Single day tours in the surrounding hills, stopping for a cookout in gorgeous, unpretentious villages, in a parterre or by a river - trekking for at least five hours a day and returning to the simple motel for supper. As an alternative, you can order a whole week rides, lodging in traditional stoned houses. The rides guided by long-practiced horsemen, all you have to know is some equestrian skills are required. Hourly lessons for beginners are obtainable : There are many stables around Marrakech you can negotiate directly with; and just for the record, the prices are not expensive.
"Résidence de la Roseraie" at Ouirgane, "Reha" near Agadir and "the Haras de Meknes" in Meknes are probably the major destinations for people who are interested in horse riding.
