Su territorio se encuentra en una zona de transición entre la _llanura del Haouz_ y las *primeras estribaciones* del [[Cordillera del Atlas|Alto Atlas]], caracterizada por un paisaje árido de colinas rocosas y mesetas de tonos ocres. <mark style="background:rgba(240, 200, 0, 0.2)">Agafay</mark> destaca por el **desierto de Agafay**, un singular paisaje pedregoso conocido popularmente como el «*desierto de Marrakech*», pese a no ser un desierto de arena propiamente dicho. La zona se ha convertido en un importante destino de **turismo rural y de aventura**, con campamentos, excursiones en vehículos todoterreno, paseos en camello y actividades de observación del paisaje. >[!grid] >![[Pasted image 20260828201305.png]] >![[Pasted image 20260828201355.png]] [^1]: Thomas Brinkhoff: City Population, Http://www. citypopulation. d.
