Rock Engravings
If you've got a car, there are some Rock Engravings a 15-minute drive out of town. Take the road south out past the camp site and youth hostel and keep following the road past the palmeraie. The paved road ends abruptly in front of a rock face where you'll find some good examples of rock carvings - mostly antelope and cattle -in front of you. On the drive there, look to your right and you'll see the crumbling remains of 15th-century towns built into the hillside.

Old Ksar
A walk among the winding streets, covered alleyways and cool houses of the Old Ksar is another highlight. Built around a central mosque, this ancient town was built in around the 9th century from mud, stone and palm trunks.
