Visited Monday April 3,2023, 2 adults with 8yro twin. If you drive from chefchaouen, it is a extremely beautiful 45mins scenic drive. Then you will reach the taxi area first then the parking lot for tourist, we were charged 15 MAD for the parking. The sign is not really clear at the sight that which way to God's bridge or to waterfall... we were planing to visit waterfall first then God's bridge, but we ended up visited only God's bridge via the upper/mountain trail (there is also another trail along the river to reach God's bridge,which is around 40mins). The mountain trail is a real breath taking scenic walking. It is not difficult but certain parts of the trail has extremely narrow path that would need extra carefulness, as well as the loose gravels along the path made it extremely slippery. Other than that, it is a very pleasant walk for our family. However, our trail ends on the top of the God's bridge, signs were set up that do not allow further walking so we had to take the same way back. We had a nice veggie tajine by the river on our way back, 50MAD veggie tajine after bargin. We entered the site at 11.57, and came out at 15.47 which left us no time and energy to visit the waterfall on...
Read moreWe hiked to the upper falls in February 2024. The trail was of moderate difficulty and was 14km round trip. Unfortunately there was no water flowing over the falls but the hike was still worth it - the forest and surrounding mountains are beautiful. We also were fortunate to see several Barbary Macaque monkeys playing on the rocks high above us. We caught a Grand Taxi from the bus station in Chefchaouen. We shared the taxi with 4 other people and the cost was 25 MAD each. When we returned from Ackour, there were only 3 other passengers so we paid 30 MAD each. The taxi drivers did the organizing of getting the total number of passengers in the taxi....so the transport was simple. If you have time during your stay in Chefchaouen, id highly recommend the...
Read moreThe way along the river is nice and can be made easily. There's a restaurant at the end of the road. Don't hesitate to rent some bathing shoes and take a walk through the canyon. Those who will walk the way until the end will find a pool for swimming. Don't mind about the cold water.
If you take the track to the God's bridge, you definitely should have the right shoes for it. It's quite challenging 😉. Take the same way back or choose a track which leads you first uphill but than it brings you close to the pool. You shouldn't be afraid of climbing and secure yourself with a rope. I haven't done it. But I saw a local climbing downhill easily. At least it looked like it...
