Berkane

Fertile town in the east at the foot of the Beni Snassen mountains — gateway to an extraordinary gorge, sea caves and one of Morocco's most dramatic cave systems

Highlights

• Beni Snassen Gorge: Dramatic limestone gorge through the Beni Snassen mountains — red-walled canyon with a river, almond terraces and Amazigh villages
• Grotte du Chameau: Named "Camel Cave" after a stalactite formation, this system has over 3 km of passages and prehistoric engravings
• Orange & Mandarin Orchards: Berkane sits in Morocco's premier citrus belt — buy freshly squeezed orange juice at roadside stalls for a few dirhams
