Description :

The Berber River is a breathtaking wonder that is worth seeing. It begins its journey from the Atlas Mountains and gracefully flows down, creating a picturesque landscape that will leave you in awe. The lush and green valley through which it meanders adds to the serene atmosphere as the river slowly winds between the magnificent peak of Tlemcen and the scenic plateau of Timeskar. The small Berber villages constructed in the 16th century with red adobe clinging to the slopes elevate the beauty of the scenery and add to the area’s cultural significance. The blend of the green valley, the meandering river, and the quaint villages is a visual delight that offers a rejuvenating experience for the soul.
