Tucked in the Rif mountains, Chefchaouen owes its global fame to walls painted in every shade of blue. The stroll winds among flowered stairways, turquoise doors and craft shops up to Outa el-Hammam square, dominated by its ochre kasbah. At dusk, the Spanish Mosque trail offers the finest view over the indigo medina bathed in golden light. A photogenic stop above all others.

What to see in the blue medina of Chefchaouen

The heart of the visit is Outa el-Hammam square, lively with cafés and dominated by the grand mosque and the 15th-century kasbah, whose gardens and small art gallery can be visited. From there you lose yourself in a maze of lanes in a thousand shades of blue, dotted with flowered stairways, turquoise doors and craft stalls. Chefchaouen is known for its wool blankets and weavings, goat cheese and olive oil — lovely souvenirs to take home. Early in the morning, before the coaches arrive, the medina is enjoyed almost deserted.

Day trip to Chefchaouen from Fes or Tangier

Perched in the Rif, Chefchaouen is most often reached on a day trip: about 2h from Tangier and 3–4h from Fes, on a scenic road climbing through the mountains. Organised tours include round-trip transport and usually leave 3–4h of free time on site, enough for the medina and lunch. To enjoy the morning light and sunset from the Spanish Mosque — the best moments for photos — it's better to stay overnight.
