Fes with Ifrane: active days with recovery across 11 days

La storia

Fes begins with Fes's madrasas; Khenifra adds Middle Atlas town on the Oum Er-Rbia; Fes provides a distinct close through steep medina lanes.

Day 1 gives Fes, before Dayet Aoua, room for craft quarters; the span toward Fes pauses on day 5 for Dayet Aoua's birdlife in Dayet Aoua; Khenifra holds day 7 ahead of Fes around red-earth hills. By day 8 toward Fes, Ifrane brings in university life; Fes shapes day 11 ahead of Dayet Aoua through steep medina lanes.

From Fes's madrasas in Fes to layered imperial city in Fes, Fès-Meknès remain legible; the itinerary combines guided walking legs and road-network stages, and Khenifra holds Middle Atlas town on the Oum Er-Rbia at the centre with recovery beside the active days.

At Fes, confirm current paths at Khenifra, equipment, and physical load and dated road conditions at Fes and network timings before moving toward Sefrou; refresh the final details before Fes.
