The Ifni Lake

In Atlas Mountains, and at an altitude of more than 2500 meters, settles one of the beautiful lakes in Morocco, Africa, and the world, The Lake Ifni, surrounded by mountains from all directions.

The Ifni Lake is located between Marrakech and Ouarzazate, at the bosoms of Toubkal Mountain, the highest mountain in North Africa, and the second in Africa, behind the mountain of Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.

Lake Ifni is also considered to be the biggest mountain lake in Morocco.

To reach Ifni Lake you can go through the national road No. 9, connecting between Ouarzazate and Marrakech, and when you arrive in the semi-urban center "Akumi", a road sign indicating the tourists the road leading to the Tedili community after a distance of 70 km. after arriving in the village of Ifni, you have to know that the road is not paved.
