Explore Kabylia And The Chiffa Gorges
The North African country of Algeria has become one of the Arab world’s leading tourist destinations and offers visitors a wide range of fantastic and contrasting attractions to visit. With a vast land space that makes it the continent’s second largest country, Algeria gives travellers direct access to countries including Morocco, Tunisia, and Mauritania as well as natural spectacles such as the sumptuous Mediterranean Sea and the legendary Sahara Desert. With the desert making up as much as 80% of this proud nation, it would be easy to assume that all that awaits curious holiday-makers are dusty, sand plains and acres of desert terrains.
However, Algeria’s fascination lies mainly in the fact that its environmental make-up consists of beautiful beaches, fertile forests, and majestic and supreme mountain ranges and peaks. While the Turquoise Coast is a popular destination for many travellers, the Kabylia and Chiffa Gorges provide yet another location for visitors to enjoy the enormous breadth the country offers. The Kabylia and Chiffa Gorges are home to some of the most spectacular mountainous ranges on display in Algeria and makes for a wonderful change from the busier centres of the rest of the country. This magnificent and picturesque setting is a big draw card for locals and foreigners alike, and the area has developed considerably with the introduction of a few impressive tourist ski resorts.
During the winter season especially, these resorts are humming and vibrant offering opportunities to visitors wanting to maximise the seasonal snow experience. During the summer, the Kabylia range and Chiffa Gorges are just as breathtaking after the snow has melted and resembles country sides out of France and Italy with its olive and fig groves. With its distinctly romantic ambience, exploring the Kabylia and Chiffa Gorges guarantee to be an experience visitors won’t soon forget.
