Photographer’s Note

Morocco is home to highest mountain range is North Africa with more than 400 summits above 3000m. And we find villages scattered at high altitudes.

This village of Tacheddirt is at 2300m of altitude and home to CAF (Club Alpin Francais) Refuge. And it appears to be a nice spot in winter for some exciting 'ski randonnée'. In the summer it is just wonderland for hiking.

The people in the villages earn their living from farming and cattles. There are some wonderful terraces in the region. Unfortunately in October the harvest is over and the terraces are less colorful.

As in many tourist prone places the kids are used to asking for sweets, pen, pecils and usual stuff. I gave them some apples that I was carrying for my lunch.. It was a hard time to get the photos of the kids as my experience in Morocco was that in the remote areas it was a kind hard to take potraits...

I have included in the WS a photo of the village.
