    Personal highlights

    1. Ounila: connecting Telouet in the Mountains with Ait Benhaddou and the Sahara
    2. Valley: formed by a river stream flowing out of the Atlas Mountains towards the plains
    3. River: forming many beautifully green oasis along its curvy path out of the mountains
    4. Scenery: this is one of the most scenic and empty routes you can drive in the Atlas!
    5. Journey: everybody recommended not to drive here but the roads were in perfect shape
