On our recent trip to Kenitra, we hiked through this park. It's located between two high ridges on the coastal plain, one just inland and the other a little farther back with the Kasbah of Mehdia which was contested in World War II.
Map of our route. From the beach and seafood restaurant, we headed SE, then turned NE to follow the lake.
Sign urging preservation of the natural environment, in Arabic and then French.
Hiking trails. No offroad hiking, but even on a wonderful fall afternoon, there was little traffic to worry about.
Cacti are in bloom.
Waterfowl everywhere. One of the times when I almost wish I had a long telephoto, but then I remember I would have to carry it, and I'm just glad I have a point and shoot with an optical zoom that's better than the smart phone.
Families enjoying a picnic. Sharing the barbecue grill for the meet is a tea pot, apparently a requirement for a Moroccan picnic.
