2 days trekking from Chefchaouen to Akchour

Escape the iconic blue alleys of Chefchaouen and venture into the heart of the Rif Mountains on this invigorating two-day trek to Akchour. Your adventure begins with a 7-hour hike from Chefchaouen to the remote village of Azilane, traversing the scenic upper valley of Tissouka. Along the way, you’ll pass through dense groves of cedar, juniper, and endemic fir trees while soaking in sweeping views of the Bouhachem Natural Park and its surrounding rural settlements. After a well-deserved picnic break mid-journey, the trail descends into the quiet village of Afeska before arriving in Azilane, where a warm welcome awaits with traditional tea infused with local medicinal herbs. The night will be spent in a charming rural gîte, offering an authentic taste of Berber hospitality.

Day two continues the adventure with a forested trail that hugs the base of Jbel Abdoun, leading you through towering cedar and pine landscapes. This region is home to captivating rock formations and, if you’re lucky, native Barbary macaques. The trail winds toward the natural wonder known as the Bridge of God (God’s Bridge), a dramatic limestone arch spanning a lush gorge—perfect for photos and quiet reflection. Your journey concludes with a private transfer back to Chefchaouen, leaving you with memories of Morocco's untouched mountain beauty and a deeper connection to its natural heart.
