At the Heart of the Rock Formations

Essendilène is a territory of cliffs, canyons and rock formations shaped over millennia. Here, the landscape reveals itself gradually, at the pace of walking. From the heights, the relief of Tikoubaouine draws a true mineral labyrinth, where valleys and rocky corridors intertwine.

The rocks sometimes take on astonishing shapes: certain silhouettes evoke pachyderms, while a natural arch recalls the head and trunk of an elephant. The adventure continues through narrow passages, secret valleys and open panoramas, far from any route accessible by vehicle.
