Ifrane
The Swiss-style town of Ifrane in the Middle Atlas at 1,650 metres
A mountain town at 1,650 metres that looks more Swiss than Moroccan — red-roofed chalets, manicured gardens, and snow in winter. Built by the French as a hill station, Ifrane is now home to Al Akhawayn University. The surrounding cedar forests hold the last Barbary macaques.
Ifrane is a stop on our Middle Atlas route between Fes and the cedar forests. The temperature drop from the plains is the first surprise.
