We made it to the valley! After a restful night in our riad, we started our day with a scenic hike through a site called Monkey Fingers, well known in the Dadès Gorges Valley area. A popular spot for both locals, tourists, and nature enthusiasts alike, Monkey Fingers is known for its unique rock formations that resemble the shape of a money’s fingers. In total we walked about 3 miles from the start of the trail back to our riad.   What a great workout to work up an appetite and prepare for the afternoon road trip to our next city!
