City : Assa zag

Located in the Guelmim-Oued Noun region, Assa-Zag is a Moroccan province at the edge of the Sahara Desert. It mainly includes two urban centers: Assa, the provincial capital with a deep historical legacy, and Zag, a smaller town rooted in Saharan nomadic culture. This region is known for its authenticity, calm atmosphere, and the warm hospitality of its people. Life here is closely tied to Sahrawi tribal traditions, with nomadic camps, cultural festivals, and weekly markets being central to local life. The natural surroundings feature expansive desert plains, rugged plateaus, and ochre mountains — ideal for hiking, camping, or cultural tourism. Assa-Zag remains one of southern Morocco’s best-kept secrets.
