Something not right?
Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
Added this waypoint as the other other one is behind and outside the structure. This one will take you right inside the "walls". Any vehicle can manage the road in and there's loads of room for vehicles of any size. Inside you are sheltered from the wind and it is shady. Definitely worth a visit.
You can hike to the top and look over the cliffs. Be careful at the edge as some of the stone plates can be loose. You can also drive to the top (not with big rigs). However, this is advanced offroading. Especially on the way down your car will tilt quite heavily to the side. Don't do it, if you have any doubts.
Bring your own firewood if you want to make a fire.
If Ali-Nomad is here he will try to sell you some fossils, but what he would really love is an ice cold beer! An interesting character who seems to be here to meet people and have a laugh rather than hustle, he's not pushy at all. We had a couple of beers with Ali while he showed us some interesting fossils embedded in the rock. I found a couple in the sand as well. One of the highlights in Morocco.
Was used in a scene in James Bond Spectre. And at least one other movie :-) (see comments)
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
We stayed inside the circle for the night. Not much wind. It is shaded by the rocks all around you. At 06:00h someone woke us up to tell us that they were about to shoot some scenes for a movie. Right after some 2nd World War-like vehicles drove inside the circle :-) Still a good place to stay for the night. Awesome stargazing possible. The other GPS location on iOverlander is behind the structure.
