Description

The south face of Oujdad is the most shear and impressive with few obvious weaknesses. One of the most inspiring and also most popular routes is the Classic Baraka which goes right up the middle of the largest part of the wall. This wall gets a lot of sun but it is often quiet cold due to the almost constant wind that cuts across its face. It's best to be prepared for both warm and cold conditions.

Getting There

Take the Taghia Berber Passage trail from the village towards Tuyat. As you circle around the west side of Oujdad close to Tuyat the trail splits several times and gets a little hard to follow in places but all the paths lead to the same place. Just keep circling around the mountain and don't take any trails that drop down towards the canyon.
