Tizi n'Tichka is a mountain pass in Morocco, linking the south-east of Marrakesh to the city of Ouarzazate through the High Atlas Mountains. It lies above the great Marrakesh plains, and is a gateway to the Sahara Desert.

From November through March, snow can often fall on the pass, but it can be warm all year round in the strong sun.[1] It reaches an elevation of 2,260 metres (7,415 ft) above the sea level, and is the highest major mountain pass in North Africa. The road was constructed along the old caravan trail by the French military in 1936, and is now part of National Route 9 (formerly Route P-31).

The last known wild Barbary lion in Morocco was shot near Tizi-n-Tichka in 1942.
