Episode Two

Alice continues her journey from Marrakech as she treks in the snow across the Atlas Mountains. Further south she makes her way to the ancient city of Sijilmasa.

This week Alice continues her travels, and as she treks through the barren, unforgiving heat of the Jebel Saghro desert, she enlists the help of Berber nomads. They still graze their animals there and live the same traditional lifestyle. They help her on her way to the ancient city of Sijilmasa, whose amazing forgotten ruins sit on the edge of the great Sahara Desert. It is a lost city, which was once a great trading post, a sanctuary for merchants arriving after the long trek across the Sahara from Timbuktu.
