Things to see and do Jijel

Established in 1923, the Taza park, with an area of 300 hectares, is one of the oldest protected areas in Algeria. In beautiful landscapes, between rocky shores, sandy beaches and wetlands - which we find from the point of view close to the lake of restraint reached by the small secondary road climbing between El Aouana and Ziama Mansouriah - there are considerable biological riches whose inventory is not completed. Mammals - the monkey monkey, a monkey, probably the most remarkable - are birds - the rare sitelle sitelle protected - reptiles and insects are fighting the terrain of zéens oaks, cork oaks and cedars.

Impossible to evoke the city of Jijel without speaking about these caves. The wonderful caves are discovered at the exit - or entrance - of a tunnel. When the caves which open in the cliffs of the cornice were discovered at the time of the drilling of the tunnel by which passes the N43, their walls were decorated with impressive limestone concretions, stalactites and stalagmites on which played the light... Splendid. The only drawback: it is sometimes very crowded.
