An hour from Fes, the scenery changes completely: enter the mountains and forests of the Middle Atlas. Ifrane surprises with its chalets and lakes, Azrou shelters Morocco's largest cedar forest home to Barbary macaques, and the road climbs to high plateaus that are refreshing in summer. A perfect trip to breathe after the intensity of the medina.

The Middle Atlas and its forests from Fes

South of Fes lies the Middle Atlas, green and cool, overlooked by classic circuits. Ifrane, nicknamed 'little Switzerland' for its alpine architecture, leads to the Azrou cedar forest where Barbary macaques roam free. Day trips often combine Ifrane, the lakes and Sefrou, a charming town with waterfalls. In summer the altitude brings welcome cool after the medina; in spring the meadows fill with flowers. Transfer from Fes usually included.

Frequently asked questions

Will we see monkeys in the Azrou forest?

Very likely: the Barbary macaques are used to visitors along the cedar road. Don't feed them (it harms them and is prohibited) and keep your distance.

How much do nature day trips in Fes cost?

Prices start at 14 € per person and vary with duration, whether the tour is private and what's included (transfer, meals, gear). Booking is online via GetYourGuide, with cancellation terms shown on the partner page.

Should I book in advance in Fes?

Yes, especially in high season: booking online secures your spot and the price, and most activities are subject to the cancellation terms shown on the partner page. Instant confirmation and a mobile ticket.

Ourika or Ouzoud?

Ourika is closer (half-day, Berber villages). Ouzoud is farther but offers Morocco's highest waterfalls and wild monkeys.
