Immouzer

Villes impériales, villages, paysages et savoir-faire à découvrir autour de Fès.

Nicknamed the pearl of the Atlas, Immouzer Kandar – literally a waterfall surrounded by mountain ranges – is an undeniable choice destination for nature lovers, regardless of the season. Lush greenery, enhanced by its sometimes centuries-old fir trees, and tranquility are, indeed, the keywords of this small town in the Middle Atlas, sitting at an altitude of over 1,400 meters.

Imouzzer Kandar, an enchanted waterfall…

Built in 1812, its privileged location allowed its Kasbah, with its curious underground dwellings dug by the Ait Serhouchene tribe, to overlook the Saïss plain, while also developing a top-notch tourist offering, particularly during the French protectorate, as evidenced by its many small European-inspired houses that give it the feel of a village in the Alpes de Haute Provence. Known for its cold winter climate and mild summers, its proximity to tourist sites such as Aïn Chifa or the lakes allows it to offer numerous cultural or sporting activities in a breathtaking natural setting. Because its beauty and natural riches attract unwavering enthusiasm every year. This is how Immouzer Kandar remains one of the starting points for numerous mountain excursions and hikes.

Nature, water, souk, a Moroccan atmosphere

But it is undoubtedly its pure, clear mineral water, with low sodium content, that has definitively given the town its finest reputation, water bottled at the Hôtel Royal, under the brand Aïn Soltane.

Finally, the finishing touch to a carefully cultivated green attitude is its souk, held every Monday and Saturday. In a jumble of shimmering colors, farmers and craftsmen come to sell the fruits of their labor in a simple, rustic atmosphere, conducive to warm human encounters that will be memorable moments in your schedule!
