Morocco walks

Shortest route to the summit of Azro Akechar, the region's little-known highest point. Views of several surrounding areas. The path is unmarked, some sections have been worked on, cairns may sometimes indicate the direction, but all this may change over time.

Starting from a riad in the centre of Chefchaouen, this walk takes you to the Bouzafer Mosque to admire the 360-degree panorama and the breathtaking view of the city. Recommended early in the day for the coolness and tranquillity of the descent along the river before arriving at the Kasbah, or in the late afternoon for the sunset.

This hike will take you up the sister dune of the Great Dune of Merzouga. Although just as high, this dune is less well known because it is not as clearly visible as its famous sister when you arrive in Merzouga. However, once you reach the top, you can admire the same panorama of the Erg Chebi and its countless dunes and sand fields. See the practical information for a few comments on our choice of route and other advice.

On this easy walk, you can enjoy the coolness of the palm grove and visit a Kasbah that is still inhabited, two must-see attractions for anyone travelling to Morocco.
