As you continue south-east, the scenery will slowly become more mountainous. After about 1 hour of driving time, you will reach the city of Tetouan, at which point you will join the Tetouan – Chefchaouen road. This is a smaller road, but is a significant artery connecting the towns and villages of the Rif Mountains with the extreme north of Morocco. During the winter, the road can be blocked due to flash flooding, although this is a rare occurrence.
