This is the day of the reward, that of the descent of the Ouzighimt Valley, a wonderful valley. We walk along the river, on the left bank. In a valley that is unique in its kind, because its inhabitants stand out from other Berbers from other valleys, especially women with their hair styles and costumes.

We cross several Berber villages, then have lunch by the river, then we continue our crossing to the village of Ifkirn.

After a good breakfast, we continue to explore this valley at the end of the world. Today we are certain to cross water, sometimes cold with a strong current. Bring sneakers or sandals to walk in the water.

Very beautiful day in a totally wild environment and cut off from the outside world.

5h30 of walking.

Day in the most beautiful and spectacular gorges of the High Atlas. Two to three hours of crossing in the water, not always strong, but several passages in the water. For a moment when the gorges are narrow, we stay in the often refreshing cold water; at the exit we will be invited by our cook to have a hot tea at the Ain Ifsfas spring. We camp near the village Tiranimine (1830 m).
