On the fourth day, our first stop was the unmissable Gara Medouar, also known as the "Carcel Portuguesa." We took the customary photos and then continued on asphalt towards Alnif, following the RN17, also known as the "desert highway." Upon reaching Alnif, we embarked on the dirt road RP1504, which took us to the fabulous Jbel Saghro. The track was well-maintained and offered breathtaking views.
We made a stop near a well, shaded by palm trees, for a quick lunch. Afterward, we continued until we reached Ikniouen, where we resumed on asphalt and passed through the Tizi Tazazert pass. We descended to N'kob, where we planned to spend the night.
