Paradise Valley (Vallée du Paradis)
Bedste tid at besøge
April through June for peak wildflower displays and mild temperatures. Early morning (before 10am) offers the best wildlife sightings and avoids crowds on weekends.
Budgettips
Entry is free, as the valley is public land managed as a protected forest. Parking near the main trailheads costs about 10-20 MAD. Pack a picnic to avoid paying resort prices at the few nearby cafes.

Om
Hurtige fakta: Denne dal strækker sig over 600 hektar beskyttet ceder- og egeskov og ligger i en højde af 1.650 meter i Mellematlas. Vildsvin, berberaber og over 30 fuglearter strejfer frit gennem vandløb og enge.
Højdepunkter: Hvert forår eksploderer dalbunden med tusindvis af vilde orkideer på tværs af 15 forskellige arter, nogle så sjældne, at de ikke vokser andre steder i Nordafrika. Lokale hyrder fører stadig deres flokke gennem gamle stier her, deres klokker ekko mod klipperne, præcis som de har gjort i århundreder.
Insidertips
- Bring binoculars to spot the rare Barbary macaques that gather near the stream crossings in early morning.
- The trail branching left at the stone bridge leads to a quieter waterfall spot most tourists miss.
- Wear sturdy waterproof shoes, as several stream crossings require hopping over wet rocks even in dry season.
- Visit on a weekday to have the main trails nearly to yourself, especially outside July and August.
