Take a trip to Atlas Mountains on your Morocco vacation.
The Atlas Mountains are a range that stretches for 2,500 km (1,600 mi) along northwestern Africa. The range can be divided into four regions: the Middle Atlas, High Atlas and Anti-Atlas in Morocco, the Saharan Atlas in Algeria and the Tell Atlas and the Aurès Mountains that cover areas in both Algeria and Tunisia.
Indigenous to North Africa, the Berber people have inhabited the coast for more than 5,000 years. After the Arab invasion of the 7th century, the Berbers were forced to either assimilate or escape to the Atlas Mountains. Many chose the mountains and as a result, a relatively pure Berber population still resides there in earthen adobe homes to be seen on Morocco vacations.
