Histoire
Khénifra est le cœur du plateau du Moyen Atlas — une ville de marché en pays amazigh des Zayane, ceinte de cèdres et de chênes, là où le haut pays s'aplatit en pâturages avant de se plier vers la plaine du Tadla. C'est la terre de Moha ou Hammou Zayani, le chef de résistance dont le nom porte encore du poids ici, et une ville qui vit de bétail, de laine, et du souk hebdomadaire. L'Oum er-Rbia, le plus long fleuve du Maroc, naît dans des sources non loin de là.
C'est pour le voyageur qui traverse le Moyen Atlas par la route, ou qui cherche le pays amazigh de plateau loin du circuit des cèdres touristiques. Ce n'est pas une destination de monuments ; son don est l'air, l'altitude, et l'appartenance.

Aguelmame Azigza is a quieter Middle Atlas lake near Khenifra. Aguelmame Azigza's value is atmosphere: water, cooler air, forest setting, rural roads and the chance to understand Morocco beyond medinas, dunes and beaches. The lake connects naturally with Khenifra, Oum Rabia, Ouiouane, Azrou and Middle Atlas road trips. Aguelmame Azigza is most rewarding when the landscape is allowed to set the pace.
Ouiouane Lake is a Middle Atlas nature anchor that can be linked with Khenifra, Aguelmame Azigza and Oum Rabia routes. Ouiouane Lake can support drivers, local guides, guesthouses, picnic stops and nature photography where appropriate. Ouiouane Lake is most rewarding when the landscape is allowed to set the pace. Middle Atlas lake, mountain forest lake, and water and seasonal light define the experience more than any built attraction.
Oum Rabia connects naturally with Khenifra, Aguelmame Azigza, Ouiouane, Middle Atlas routes and family day trips. At Oum Rabia Sources, the main attraction is the setting itself: spring, Middle Atlas, and river source. Nature travelers, families, day-trippers, and photographers gain the most from the place when they leave room for changing weather, seasonal access and the quieter details of the setting.
Tiguelmamine Lakes is a lake cluster in Beni Mellal-Khenifra, best approached from Khenifra. Its value comes from a quieter Middle Atlas lake cluster for family and nature routes.
