Terjit is a wonderful oasis located 12km from Atar. Atar is 180km from Akjoujt, i'm already talking you about it already for you to understand that if you're heading Atar, this Terjit place is a must.
This spring is signposted before Ain Ahel At Taya. A hot spring and several cool ones water a tight awesome oasis of a great beauty. this place is right on the buttom of a cliff valley. Some pre historical cave painting can be seen near the camp also.
