The undiscovered Al Hoceima National Park is a hidden jewel of this region. The park extends to 485 sq km (including 190 sq km at sea). The area is dotted with Berber settlements and criss-crossed by dirt roads, making it ideal trekking and mountain-biking territory. Its isolation has helped preserve several at-risk species, from its thuya forests to an important colony of fish eagle. While a 4WD opens up your options, a 2WD will get you through the main tracks. The park offers two regions: the central Rif bordered by the N16 in the south and west, and the coast.
