YOU WANNA HAVE FUN Hiking away from the Hustle & bustle of the Fes's medina ? We propose a wonderful journey to enjoy nature while having breathtaking moments surrounded by nature, whereby you can have the best top view panoramic over Fes's medina to enjoy snapping beautiful photos. From the summit we can see clearly the middle Atlas mountains and Rif mountains . In fact, It's a rural place where farming and agriculture are the main theme, an outing in nature just not that far from Fès, but still it can give you the opportunity to fully endorse the simple life of the countryside in Morocco. While sitting on nice shaded bunch of Pinus sylvestris trees, we will prepare Hammocks and nice picnic setting with some nice delicious food and mint tea just on top of the mountain of Zalagh. This ecological outing is a best way to encounter Moroccan farmers and shepherds on the way enjoying their simple life. It is just one of the highlights of your Moroccan adventure.

    Guided Hike

    We went hiking in the Zalagh mountains with Soufiane and Sufyan. It was a fantastic experience. They were amazing guides- so positive, bubbly, and friendly. We had a great time chatting to them. They were very knowledgeable about the surrounding area and were able to tell us many interesting stories. Our family of four (two 50 year olds and two 20s) found the hike enjoyable and challenging in parts but fun! We stopped at the submit for a picnic- the food (prepared by our two guides) was absolutely delicious. Thank you for this experience!

    Response from the operator: Dear Isabel, You are welcome, and thank you for being an amazing hiker with good motivated spirit throughout the experience. Your stories of your adventures were so amazing to hear about, and thank you for sharing. Best regards Sufyan

    Beautiful Moroccan countryside and spectacular views

    Our family of four spent a fantastic day with Soufiane walking through beautiful countryside and seeing the most spectacular views of Fes, the Rif and the Atlas Mountains. The walking was quite easy and Soufiane guided us expertly. We were treated to a wonderful lunch on the mountain top. The whole experience was incredible and I would highly recommend it.

    Response from the operator: Dear Mr Larkin, Thank you for the recommendation as it will motivates us to keep going forward in providing quality service and experience to travelers and nice folks like your family. Regards Sufyan

    Great tour Volubilis-Meknes from Fez

    We spent a really nice day visiting Volubilis and Meknès starting from Fez. Sufyan is an excellent driver and guide, reliable and friendly, I definitely would advise his company for any guided tour. He speaks many languages (a bit of italian too!!!). When we come back to Marocco we will certanly contact him to plan our trips. Thank you for the great experience! 😊

    Response from the operator: Dear Micheal, We are happy that you had great guided tour with Sufyan. It is always great to read our clients feedback. We will continue to offer great package for our customers. Thank you for visiting Morocco. Best regards Sufyan

    Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fez.

    How much does Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic cost?

    +

    Prices start at $91 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Fez usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Fez is not rushed.

    Is Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Fez, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Fez can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Fez and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Fez within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Fez?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Fez experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Fes to Marrakech desert tour 3 days, Fes to Marrakech: Merzouga & Ait Ben Haddou, 3 Days 2 Nights, 2Days groupe Tour Fes To Fes Or Marrakech Via Sahara Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Fez?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Fez?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Official Mount Guide; Bottled water; Lunch; and Snacks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 285 listed pickup locations in and around Fez. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Mount Zalagh : Fès Hiking Picnic offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Arabic, English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
