- NORTH TUNISIAThe Atlas mountain range, which starts in Morocco and stretches majestically at 1544 meters high to the North of Tunisia, forms an exceptional forest park. The mountains of Khroumirie, Nefzas and the Mogods for instance which stretch from the South West to the North East of Tunisia, all have accessible and well-marked footpaths. The wild coastline plus the pine and oak woodlands lead us to beautiful wide-ranging flora and fauna. At the heart of Khroumirie Mountains lies the town of Ain Draham at a crossroads of numerous pedestrian routes. There are more than 550 km of well marked tracks amid oak forests blazing the trail to springs and waterfalls, uncovering deep valleys and rising to panoramic views through breathtaking biotopical diversity.
