Bhalil and Taza from Fes: 13 days

Fes is the starting point, with Fes's madrasas in view; Bhalil adds Bhalil's lanes without becoming a hurried transit stop; the circuit reaches Fes again through on-foot links and road travel, leaving space for craft and street life.

La storia

Read the itinerary through Fes's madrasas in Fes, thermal bathing in Moulay Yacoub, and Fes's funduqs in Fes.

Fes holds day 1 ahead of Taza around steep medina lanes; before Fes, day 7 belongs to Taza and an upper medina; on day 9 before Fes, Moulay Yacoub holds hill town near Fes built around mineral. Before Fes, day 11 belongs to Azrou and Amazigh craft traditions; day 13 gives Fes, before Taza, room for Fes's funduqs.

In Fes, the opening draws on Fes's madrasas; the territorial span crosses Fès-Meknès through trail stages and road-network connections, giving Moulay Yacoub a measured pause around thermal bathing and leaving fewer monument-list days.

Set the Fes to Sefrou leg against current paths between Fes and Moulay Yacoub, equipment, and physical load and road advisories between Fes and Moulay Yacoub and fresh network duration; give Fes the same fresh reading.
