Itinerary description

This is a good tough 2-hour loop from the Annex, with a tough decent down from the airport, a great trail into and through the village of Ben Smim, a demanding climb up out of the Ben Smim valley on what I call the "Lost Road," and on up and around the rocky southern flanks of Jebel Koudiat and back into Ifrane.

Avoid the older track--it's horribly rocky!
