- Tilebit Valley Floor Walk at Tabant: The classic image of Ait Bouguemez is the patchwork of walnut trees, barley terraces and mud-brick villages spread along the river below the High Atlas. Walk the valley floor from Tabant east toward Agouti and you pass irrigation channels and fields worked by hand, with 4,000 meter ridges closing the horizon.
- Agouti Agadir: This fortified communal granary sits above the village of Agouti. Families once locked grain and valuables inside its stone rooms. The climb is short, the view down the valley is excellent, and it explains how the community survived harsh winters and raids.
- Tarkeddit Plateau: A steep climb from the valley leads to a high plateau of grazing land and seasonal shepherd camps. You get wide views over the whole valley and, in the right months,

- Tarkeddit Plateau: A steep climb from the valley leads to a high plateau of grazing land and seasonal shepherd camps. You get wide views over the whole valley and, in the right months, snow on distant peaks. Expect a long, hard day, and start early.
- Azib Ikkis and the Mgoun Approach: Trails from the upper valley head toward Jebel Mgoun, which rises to 4,071 meters and is the second highest summit in the High Atlas. Even a partial walk toward the Tarkeddit side shows the rocky, bare terrain that sits above the green valley. Shepherds’ stone huts mark the route.
- Village Tracks Between Agouti, Imelghas and Tabant: Short paths link the small villages, each with its own mosque, threshing floors and rooftop stacks of fodder. The “Blue Valley” nickname for the Valley of the Happy people comes from the clear air and the green fields. Stop for tea with a family in a guesthouse and ask the host to point out the marked footpaths.
