Ras El Ma

Tazekka National Park


Climbing out of Taza into the mountains as you travel south on the R507 affords wonderful views. The waterfalls, just outside the park, are at their best from November to May. They emanate from a spring surrounded by ash, cherry and olive trees. There are a few small restaurants along the road here, serving drinks and tajines.
