Kilometers from the blue town of Chefchaouen, in the vicinity of Talassemtane National Park we find one of the largest natural spectacles of Morocco, the cascades of Akchour.
The waterfalls, declared as well as their environment, reserve of the biosphere by Unesco in 2016, invite to a sensory experience of the richest.
The path that leads to the waterfalls is of great beauty in addition to being well marked and easy access for all members of the family. The first route also allows access to another important geographical accident, the Pont de Dieu. Arriving at the junction between the roads of the Cascade and the bridge, we take the road to the latter, following the river El Kelaa. Despite the slight slope, we can already notice the first waterfalls and wooden bridges. Along the way we can see frail cane constructions and the ornaments of the road as the benches help to give the area a magical aura.
As the road becomes more complicated, the beauty of the area increases by a notch.
The waterfalls are always bigger until arriving at the great cascade of Akchour where the water seems to have patiently sculpted a magical decoration of capricious forms the limestone.
