Synopsis

This nature travel guidebook to Southern Morocco contains routes and background info on landscape, flora and fauna. The Crossbill Guide Southern Morocco covers the part of Morocco that lies roughly south of the city of Marrakech. It includes the High Atlas and Anti-Atlas Mountains, the bird-rich High Steppe Plain of Ouarzazate and the Moroccan Sahara south of that. Here the Drâa River Valley and Erg Chebbi are the famous regions. Further west, the Souss Valley and Atlantic coast is included from Essaouira down to Sidi Ifni (thus excluding the Western Sahara).

The Crossbill Guide Southern Morocco is a thorough and practical guide for birdwatchers, naturalists and nature lovers. It offers background information, routes and site descriptions, plus tips on finding and watching all kinds of wildlife. Each route offers detailed descriptions of where to find wildlife and wildflowers. The book offers a mix of walking routes and car itineraries with stops and short walks. Although some are challenging, all the walks in this book are designed to explore the landscape and find birds and wildlife rather than simply covering ground.

- Landscape history
- Ecosystems
- Geology
- Flora and Fauna
- Where to watch birds
- Finding mammals, reptiles, butterflies, dragonflies and wildflowers
- 25 detailed routes with tips for finding wildlife and 29 site descriptions

Martin Pitt (UK, 1962), is a freelance wildlife guide, working through the UK-based tour operator Naturetrek. Previously he worked around the globe in business and his love of deserts came from the time he lived and worked in the Middle East. He has been visiting Southern Morocco for almost 20 years. Martin’s interest in natural history stretches back to his earliest memories. Initially focused on mammals and birds, it later broadened to include insects, flora and herpetofauna. It was never only about the species though, but always about the context of flora and fauna in the landscape, with ‘sense of place’ that the local ecology, landscape and social structure brings.
