Description
Todra Gorge (واد تودغى) is one of Morocco’s most spectacular natural landmarks, located in the eastern High Atlas near the town of Tinghir. Carved by the Todra River, the limestone canyon is renowned for its nearly vertical rock walls, which rise up to 300 meters and narrow to around ten meters at the tightest point. The gorge combines dramatic mountain scenery with the lush palm groves and oases of the Todra Valley, offering impressive opportunities for hiking and rock climbing. As one of North Africa’s most notable climbing destinations and a scenic highlight of southern Morocco, Todra Gorge attracts nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts from around the world.
