Follow on Google News | Origins supports ecotourism in MoroccoTraditional Berber Kasbah and Nomad camp, recently transformed into comfortable eco-lodgings, create new revenu sources for rural population in one of Morocco's most impressive landscapes.
By: Origins The ecofriendly Roses camp, set in the lush Roses Valley in the Moroccan South Atlas, is both traditional in its architecture and progressive in its concept. Surrounded by fields of roses, peaches and barley, the ecocamp provides our guests with a traditional Berber-style accommodation in large comfortable Caidal tents. This magnificent riverside setting close to the Dades valley is the ideal base to trek through the valley along the riverbanks, through fields of roses, rammed earth Kasbahs and houses or into the mountains. Also perfect as place of retreat. The Atta Camp, a luxury desert camp is a real escape from the hustling city life into the Sahara desert. Set in the impressive tassilis landscape, close to the Nomads village Remlia, the Saharan camp provides intimacy for private group travels or honeymooners. Our guests will stay in traditional Nomad tents, renovated and transformed into comfortable double tent-rooms. After a walking tour or an excursion, the desert camp provides you with hot shower and a traditional Moroccan tajine under starry nights – some rare luxuries in the middle of the Moroccan desert. OUR COMMITMENT TO RESPONSIBLE TOURISM AND LOCAL DEVELOPMENT Environment and heritage protection – ORIGINS is involved in local waste management: waste separation, sensitisation awareness campaign about waste management in school, waste collection and separation with local children. Plastic and iron waste is brought back to Marrakech or Ouarzazate to be disposed onshore. Furthermore, ORIGINS contributes to the Marabout’s renovation, a beautiful old grenier in the village with an important signification for the Berbers. Ecotourism and water management – Implantation of dry toilets in the Atta Camp. Sensitisation education of our clients via regulation of water use of 2 litres per day upon arrival in the camp. Also guests are informed that linen and towels are changed only once during their stay. Employees are very environment minded. # # # Origins, designer and architect of all its lodgings, proposes holidays in traditional, ecolodges and camps situated in the heart of nature and cultures of exception.
