70 km south of Marrakech, at the foot of Jbel Meltsen (3600 m), lies the vast Yagour plateau, an exceptional cultural landscape shared by around forty villages. A highly subtle form of community grazing management is based on customary law and relies on the seasonal opening and closing of different collective pastures. This is the practice known as AGDAL... a small miracle of 'endogenous' pastoral organisation that seems to have stood the test of time.
The Café Doc starts at 12:30 with coffee and sweets.
