    After about 40 kilometers of road, the landscape changes: the road begins to climb and run alongside the Ourika river. The vegetation is becoming very green. The group usually stops to visit a traditional Berber house to discover the local way of life and taste mint tea, as well as to stop at a women's argan oil cooperative.
