Food
The choice of dry rations is limited in rural Morocco. You cannot be sure of finding much
beyond powdered milk, a range of dried fruit and sachets of soup, biscuits, some tinned
fish and dates. Supermarkets in larger towns and cities are a much better option, and if
you take a mule, you will be able to plan a more varied diet.
Bread, eggs, vegetables and some basic supplies (eg tea and tinned tuna) may be avail-
able in some mountain villages, but you cannot count on it. Meals can also be arranged in
some villages (Dh30 to Dh50 per person is standard), especially at
gîtes
and
refuges,
al-
though they usually need to be ordered in advance. Again, do not rely on local suppliers
as your only source of food unless you have made previous arrangements.
Change money in the nearest major town and ensure that you have plenty of small
notes. If you do get stuck, euro notes may be accepted.
