Travel Guide Tamchekket

The small town of Tamchekket, founded in 1927, is the capital of a department overrun by sand and is an obligatory stopover for anyone wishing to reach Aoudaghost. The inauguration, in February 2021, of the 90 km asphalt road linking it to Zravia (on the N3, between Kiffa and Tîntâne) has contributed to its opening up. If you happen to go to this part of Hodh el Gharbi, you should know that agropastoral activities are dominant there: millet and corn cultivation, market gardening, phœniculture, small ruminant breeding (sheep and goats)... The wadi bordering Tamchekket constitutes, as for him, a true haven of flora and fauna
