A small mountain town that wrapped itself in shades of blue washing over its walls and stone alleys. Founded in 1471 as a mountain fortress, today it is a haven of calm for photographers and nature lovers. Start at Outa el-Hammam square, then climb to the Spanish Mosque viewpoint at sunset to see the blue town cradled by the Rif peaks.
Reserve half a day for the Kasbah and the old gates, and a full day for Talassemtane National Park with the waterfalls of Akchour.
