Begin your adventure with a gentle ascent on foot through olive terraces and small valleys as the city fades into the background. Learn about the Rif’s landscape, farming, and daily mountain life.

Arrive at a traditional mountain home near Mechkralla. Join the hosts in milking their goats, learn how herding sustains village families, and experience rural hospitality.

Continue hiking deeper into the valley toward a rural house where lunch will be served. The terrain includes terraced farmland, wild herbs, and distant views over the Rif peaks.

Share a homemade lunch featuring local ingredients like olive oil, fresh bread, and goat cheese prepared by your hosts. Conversation with the family reveals their customs and traditions.

Take part in every step of the cheese-making process: curdling, shaping, pressing, and salting. Taste your fresh cheese.

Relax during a scenic off-road drive back to Chefchaouen. The route traces forested slopes and valleys seen earlier from above, offering new perspectives on the landscape you explored on foot.
