As such, the Hoggar is now considered the most important mountain range in the Sahara, and its imposing peaks reveal ancient volcanic chimneys. In addition, among the most beautiful mountains of the Hoggar that arouse the curiosity of travelers, there are the Aiguilles d'Ilamane, the Akar Akar, and the Tizouyag. In the heart of the Hoggar stands the Atakor mountain and the Tahat volcano, the two highest points in Algeria. In addition, the Atakor plateau is one of the main attractions of the Hoggar mountains because it is home to countless volcanoes with a height of 3000 meters. This place will allow travelers to marvel at a vertiginous landscape with its volcanic rock flows, giant calderas, and lunar atmosphere. Mount Tahat is the highest point of the Atakor, rising to about 3000 meters above sea level. It is even one of the highest mountains in Algeria. A bit further north, the Tefedest massif is the northernmost part of the Hoggar with its magnificent Garet el Djenoun. The part that will appeal to many explorers is called the Assekrem. This plateau is spectacularly capped by gigantic rocky peaks over 2700 meters above sea level. Moreover, the Assekrem is protected within the Ahaggar Cultural Park. Travelers will be surprised by the breathtaking view of these places. When visiting the Hoggar mountains, it is imperative to see Tamanrasset. This place expresses its uniqueness through its red houses, arid climate, and dense cultural offer. The Museum of Traditional Arts will allow travelers to discover objects that belonged to the pilgrim Charles de Foucauld. A trip to the Hoggar mountains must include a stop at the tomb of Tin Hinan, located in the oasis of Abalessa. This place allows tourists to learn more about the culture of the Kel Ahaggar Tuaregs. ◄
