Kasbah du Toubkal

Atlas Mountains, Morocco[view map]

Style: Berber castle retreat
Setting: High in the High Atlas

High above sea level, the Kasbah du Toubkal looks out over three major valleys carved from majestic rocky mountains rising to over 4,000 metres. Near the foot of the highest peak in North Africa, it's only 40 miles from Marrakech, but the peace and quiet and seclusion are so complete the city seems a million miles away.
