🧭 What is this route about?

A tour of one of the most beautiful places in northern Morocco. The route begins in the city of Chefchaouen and ends at the entrance to Talassemtane National Park, crossing the Riff Mountains, in a natural setting with villages dedicated to hashish cultivation. It then delves between rock walls and dense vegetation until reaching the famous Akchour waterfall, a waterfall that, depending on the season, can be impressive or almost nonexistent. You can rest, refresh yourself, or simply enjoy the place.

You can read the whole experience in this article I wrote on the blog.
