Description Suggest change

South of the city of Tafrout exists a collection of climbs on granite of varying quality. While much of the rock is coarse-grained and exfoliating, there does exist several worthwhile lines for those willing to explore.

Getting There Suggest change

The grantie is immediately south of town and climbs are found in several sub-areas.

Guidebooks

Suggest change

As of 2018 there is a new guidebook published by the Oxford Alpine club and Steve Broadbent dedicated to the Granite climbing in the anti-atlas. There are also sections on granite climbing found in previous guidebooks, including the Tafraout pocket guides (out of print) that were published by the OAC.
