25 September 07 – Skoura to Todra gorge
We left hotel Sawadi after breakfast and drove further up the Dadès
valley until Boumalne, where we branched off to Tinerhir. Then we drove
up through gorge-ous scenery to Auberge le Festival
http://www.aubergelefestival.cjb.net in the Todra gorge, where we had a
lunch on their terrace accompanied by a bottle of Moroccan red wine.
Later we would find out that it was their last bottle!
Later in the afternoon, the patron Adi drove us down the road so we
could walk back up through the ‘petit gorge’ to the Auberge. An hour’s
walk is about the limit for Flemming’s right ankle joint at the moment.

26 September 07 – Todra gorge to Dadès gorge
We followed Adi back down through Todra gorge to the start of a walk
through a palm grove. It wasn’t as straight forward a route as he had
led us to believe, and we got a bit lost in the ruins of a Kasbah.
We eventually found our way out and drove back to Boumalne, where we
branched off to Dadès gorge. After 27 km we arrived Chez Pierre
http://chezpierre.ifrance.com where we had an excellent late lunch on
their terrace.
