Anti Atlas

The eastern Anti-Atlas rises along the southern edge of Morocco’s mountain country, toward the oases of Tafilalt and the Sahara. Its rocky ridges and dry valleys contrast with the cultivated land of the oases. Farther west, the range extends toward the Atlantic; to the north lies the High Atlas. Settlements in the pre-Saharan valleys depended on water brought down from the mountains to sustain palm groves and fields.
