Seeing tree climbing goats near Agadir is one of the most unusual sights in southern Morocco. In the argan forest region, goats climb into the branches to eat leaves and fruit, because food on the ground is scarce. This short morning trip takes you there from your hotel in Agadir or Taghazout, with a guide and an air-conditioned vehicle.
After pickup at 9:00 AM, you drive toward the argan forest on the road in the direction of the Agadir-Marrakech highway. The drive takes roughly 30 to 45 minutes. You then stop where the goats are perched high in the trees, and you have plenty of time to watch them, take photos and film videos.
You also get free time with the goats and their newborn kids, so you can take close-up souvenir photos. The early start keeps the atmosphere calm, and it is a good fit for families and anyone who wants a quick nature stop without losing the whole day.
The itinerary also lists an optional visit to a local Berber women's cooperative. There you can see how argan nuts are cracked by hand and how argan oil is made. You are back at your accommodation at about 11:00 AM, ready for the rest of your day in Agadir.
