Tafraoute Online New Route Book

Online New Route Book Start Discussion

Welcome to the climb-tafraoute online route book.

We're doing some work on these pages at the moment, so please bear with us if the order of the pages seems a little bit random. Once we've finished, we hope to list every one of Tafraoute's thousand or so climbs!

Many of the routes in the Anti-Atlas have seen few ascents, so your comments on grades, quality, and route descriptions will help us to make future editions of the guidebook more accurate, and provide a great source of info for future visitors.

To comment on a particular route, or add details of a new climb, please select the relevant area from the Online Route Book below, then choose the crag on which your route is located. To add a new route, click the 'Post Reply' button at the top right... and away you go!

Finally, if you've spotted a mistake in one of our guidebooks or miniGuides, then please let us know in the 'Corrections' forum. Thanks!

Sidi M'Zal Area To the east of Jebel el Kest, on the main road between Tafraoute and Agadir is the important climbing centre of Sidi M'Zal. A number of worthwhile single-pitch crags exist alongside some impressive high-mountain buttresses.	10	24	3 months ago by climb-tafraoute

Granite Routes The granite around Tafraoute has seen steady route activity since the first climbers visited the area over 30 years ago, and whilst the quality of the rock isn't quite up to that of the quartzite, it can provide interesting climbing within walking distanc	1	1	3 months ago by Reedy24
