You can access crag from Tineghir with cab (about 7 dh). Take the main avenue to search for crowed cab near Agoudal hotel.
Many housing along road between Tineghir and the "Gorges". You don't need car if you sleep in auberges near the "Gorges".
Our favorite : Dar Tiwira, 600m walk from the "Gorges", is the only family one.
