Ifrane National Park
Beste tid å besøke
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.
Budsjettips
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.
Anbefalt for
Hikers and nature lovers, Wildlife photographers, Families with kids, Winter sports enthusiasts

Om
Raske fakta: Hjem til den truede berberapen. Mer enn 300 plantearter trives i parkens seder- og eikeskoger. Parkens høyde på over 1600 meter gjør at vinteren bringer et teppe av snø, og forvandler landskapet til en scene rett ut av Alpene.
Høydepunkter: Dypt inne i skogen står et massivt 800 år gammelt sedertre kalt "Gouraud", som måler over 12 meter i omkrets og krever seks personer som holder hender for å omfavne stammen. Lokal legende sier at treet ble oppkalt etter en fransk general, og at de gamle grenene har skjermet berberiske gjetere gjennom utallige snøstormer.
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.
