Climb Tafraout: Moroccan Anti-Atlas rock climbing guidebook

Description

The Climb Tafraout, Moroccan Anti-Atlas guidebook describes the traditional rock climbing to be found on the north and south sides of the Jebel el Kest massif near the town of Tafraout (Tafraoute). Morocco’s Anti-Atlas mountains are a unique playground for the adventurous climber, where perfect weather, miles of superb quartzite and granite rock, stunning scenery and an enchanting culture combine to create one of the world’s most adventurous rock climbing destinations. There is everything from single pitch roadside crags, bouldering, to long multi-pitch routes on big walls and even the odd sport route.

This comprehensive guidebook describes more than 1,900 routes, from moderate through to E6. This guidebook is split into 12 main climbing areas, which are; Tafraout granite, Anergui, Ameln Valley, Tarakatine, Sidi M’Zal, Jebel Taskra, Idaougnidif, Afantinzar, Samazar, Aouguenz Road, Tagzene, and Tagmout.

All the routes are shown on colour photo topos along with pitch-by-pitch descriptions, and are given British traditional grades.  For the multi-pitch routes detail descent information is also given. At the start of each main area there is a detailed location map and an overall description of the type of climbing to be found, plus QR codes for each crag, buttress and parking spot, making it easier than ever to find your chosen route.

Published in December 2020 (revised 2^nd edition detailing an extra 400+ routes) this guidebook is in English text throughout. It includes excellent information on how to get to Tafraout, where to stay, along with practical and cultural information about staying in the Morocco Anti-Atlas Mountains.
