Ifrane National Park
Bedste tid at besøge
Visit in late spring (May-June) when wildflowers carpet the meadows and the weather is mild for hiking. Winter (December-February) draws crowds for snow activities and the surreal sight of cedar trees dusted white.
Budgettips
Entry to the park is free, as it's a protected natural area with no gates or ticket booths. Bring your own food and water from Ifrane town, as there are no cafes inside the park and the nearest shops are 20 minutes away.

Om
Hurtige fakta: Hjemsted for den truede berberabe, mere end 300 plantearter trives i parkens cederskove og egeskove. Parkens højde på over 1.600 meter betyder, at vinteren bringer et tæppe af sne, der forvandler landskabet til en scene lige ud af Alperne.
Højdepunkter: Dybt inde i skoven står et massivt 800 år gammelt cedertræ kaldet "Gouraud", der måler over 12 meter i omkreds og kræver seks personer, der holder hinanden i hånden, for at omslutte dets stamme. Lokal legende siger, at træet blev opkaldt efter en fransk general, og dets gamle grene har skjult berberhyrder gennem utallige snestorme.
Insidertips
- Rent a mountain bike in Ifrane town to cover more ground on the park's network of forest trails.
- Bring binoculars and arrive at dawn for your best chance to spot the shy Barbary macaque troops before other visitors arrive.
- Pack warm layers even in summer; temperatures drop sharply after sunset at this elevation.
- The road through the park toward Azrou offers the most dramatic views of the cedar forest without leaving your car.
