Driving from Fes to Chefchaouen: what to expect

The road

There's no motorway on this route: national roads climb from the Saïss plain through olive groves and the Rif foothills via Ouezzane. Roads are two-lane with many bends in the final mountain section, so average speeds are low.

Comfort & conditions

The last hour twists through the mountains, so travellers prone to motion sickness should sit up front. Chefchaouen's medina is car-free and hilly — pack light or use a porter.

Every vehicle is air-conditioned, and your driver loads the luggage and helps with the bags at both ends.

Stops worth making

  • Ouezzane

    Historic market town roughly halfway — a good coffee break.

  • Rif foothill viewpoints

    Green hills and olive terraces make for easy photo stops as the road climbs.

  • Ras el-Maa

    The spring and small waterfall at the top of Chefchaouen's medina, a short walk from the old town.

Private driver vs. train, bus and grand taxi for Fes to Chefchaouen
