Monkey Finger's Canyon at Your Own Pace

About this activity

Monkey Fingers Canyon, located in the heart of the Dades Valley, is one of the most impressive natural gems in southern Morocco. Its name comes from the singular shape of its rocks sculpted by erosion, which evoke huge monkey fingers. This unique site offers a spectacular landscape of reddish cliffs, narrow gorges and amazing rock formations, changing color as the day progresses according to sunlight.

Hiking in Monkey Fingers Canyon is an unforgettable experience, accessible at all levels. The route takes about 2 to 3 hours and crosses a breathtaking scenery: passages between the large stone walls, small paths winding between the rocks, and panoramic views of the Dades valley and the surrounding mountains. It is an ideal place for lovers of nature, photography and peace.
