(The name “Berber” comes from the Greek word “Barbaros” which designated a foreign person in the sense that they did not speak the Greek language… It was the Romans who gave the name Berber to this people in part: the Berber people. However, the Berber people prefer the name “Amazigh” which means “Free Man”.)

Stop At: Barrage Youssef Ibn Tachfine, Oued Massa, Massa Morocco

The dam of the Youssef Ibn Tachfin dam, 707 meters long, has created an artificial lake but the impression of freshness is not necessarily there in this hot region of southern Morocco. Leaning on the edges of the Anti-Atlas, the dam is 85 meters high: a beautiful structure installed on one of the arms of the Massa wadi.
The lake stretches beautifully over seven kilometers in length: this water reserve is intended to irrigate the Chtouka plain, which receives little rainfall, to grow vegetables and citrus fruit there, as in the neighboring Souss plain.
