The Anti-Atlas, by Morocco Rock, is the latest selected climbs
guide to Morocco's winter sun trad climbing destination, featuring
the very best routes to be found in the region around the busy
market town of Tafraout, and only a couple of hours from Agadir
airport. This revised and updated guide documents a colossal 1700
routes on over 100 crags, including many new developments in this,
now established, quartzite paradise. The book features new cliffs
in the mighty Amaghouz Gorge on the western fringes, as well as new
discoveries in every major area throughout the guide, and also
includes the granite boulders and outcrops around Tafraout, which
have a mixture of trad and sport climbing. The area should appeal
to all climbers with a sense of adventure, and especially to those
wanting to experience a change of culture, and it is already
becoming an extremely popular destination worldwide. Modern,
colourful topos and inspiring action photography compliment the
user-friendly maps and crag table, facilitating swift and easy crag
and route choice. There are now 9 major areas to choose from,
including a selection of varied length walks at the end of each
section, to keep any stalwarts entertained on a `rest day'. No
adverts also mean that this guidebook is packed full of information
from cover to cover, including state of the art smartphone
navigation to the parking spots via satellite co-ordination. The
beautiful and rugged mountain terrain is surprisingly quick and
easy to access, many of the cliffs within twenty minutes walk from
the road, giving much of the climbing here a distinctly `cragging'
feel, akin to that to be found in many areas of the UK. There is
everything in this guide, from big mountain days on multi pitch
routes, to roadside single pitch cragging, predominantly on
perfect, sun-baked, golden quartzite. The fantastic eastern culture
and warm winter sunshine, from September right through to May,
together with the diversity of extraordinary adventures to be had,
make this area a very special place in which to climb.
