1. Medina and Kasbah
Chefchaouen boasts one of the most picturesque medinas in Morocco, a compact and crowd-free area that's a delight to explore, with almost every building along its tangle of alleyways painted in a dazzling blue hue. Photo opportunities abound at every turn. At its heart is the cobbled main square, Place Outa el Hammam. Looming over the medina are the dusky red walls of the 13th-century kasbah, now home to a lovely Andalusian garden and a small ethnographic museum. Climb the tower for incredible views of the medina and the mountains beyond.

2. Akchour Waterfall and God's Bridge
The village of Akchour in Talassemtane National Park—a 50-minute grand taxi ride northeast of Chefchaouen—is the starting point for two beautiful and relatively easy hikes. Take the left-hand path at the hydroelectric dam, and the Akchour waterfall is around a 45-minute walk away. From there you have the option of continuing on a four- to five-hour round-trip hike to another, much larger waterfall. You can also choose to go right at the dam; on the other side of the river, you can head up on a steep path to God's Bridge, a natural stone bridge. Several small cafés offering mint tea and tagines sprinkle the paths, as do wildflowers. Be aware that some locals might try to sell you things, some of them illegal.

3. Talassemtane National Park
Established in 2004, the 145,000-acre Talassemtane National Park is a beautiful 45-minute drive from Chefchaouen. Its Mediterranean ecosystem hosts a unique variety of Moroccan pine as well as more than 239 plant species, many of which are endangered, such as the black pine and the Atlas cedar. The numerous hiking options include the popular hike to the Akchour Waterfall and God's Bridge. It's recommended to use a guide on longer hikes.
