Travel Guide Mount Chenoua

Mount Chenoua, which rises at 900 m above sea level, is the culmination of the Sahel Mountains. The panorama from the summit that you reach in 2 to 3 hours walking through a trail since Nador is superb. Pins, Oliviers, olive trees and mastic share vegetation. The inhabitants of Mount Chenoua speak the chenoui, a Berber dialect very close to the thakvaylith (kabyle) of Eastern Algeria. This language has inspired the famous novelist and filmmaker Assia Djebar. His first short film, La Nouba des femmes du Mont Chenoua, which became a classic of Algerian cinema, documents the stories of the women of the region and these incredible landscapes between Chenoua and Tenes, which were born.
