HARA OASIS

The ancient caravans coming from Timbuktu or other regions of ancient Sudanese Africa, eagerly wanted to reach the Draa Valley. After more than 50 days of walking through the Sahara desert, reaching the oases and the coolness of the palm groves was like a dream come true.
Even nowadays, sneaking under the green and lush largest palm grove in the world is an almost unreal feeling. This feeling becomes palpable when you enter the palm grove through the ruins of the ghost town of El Hara. Its Jewish origins testify to the commercial activity of the caravans of yesteryear.
From the ruins, and after an unexpected walk of about 5 minutes through the gardens and the edge of the Draa river, we arrive at Hara Oasis. Fourteen bungalows perfectly integrated into the landscape allow the traveler to exile themselves from the outside world. “Congo”, our donkey from the palm grove, is in charge of leaving our hands free. While we were doing the short trek, he takes care of transporting the luggage to the accommodations.
The only lighting in the enclosure is caused by the glow of candles, moonlight, stars and, the if necessary, thanks to the panels. The only sounds to listen to are produced by the murmur of water between the stones of the river, the wind on the branches, and the thousands of frogs and birds.
Hara Oasis is designed for those who seek moments of calm and relaxation in a complete impregnation with nature. Those who prefer a rigmarole and the music of the drums will be able to find them in most of the accommodations that exist in the south of Morocco.
From the oasis you can carry out different activities and practice thematic routes. Earthen architecture, volcanic mountains, seas of dunes, rock heritage or the Draoua, the characters who seem taken from a setting, offer unusual visions that the traveler will be able to discover during his stay at Hara Oasis.
