On your way to the valley, you can make a quick stop at the house of a Berber family and enjoy some welcome tea with traditional bread. This way you cannot only experience the warm hospitality of the people but also enjoy the serenity of the place. The majority of the Berber families are extremely friendly and happily welcome visitors to their homes. A local guide will help you with hiking around the place. The journey will be easy; however, you will have to climb a few rocks to reach the seven waterfalls of Setti Fatma. To get from one side of the valley to the other, you will be required to cross several Berber bridges; however, the view that you will get to see will be worth it! After the hike, you can take some rest and have lunch in a lovely restaurant in the mountains.
