A surprising encounter... Monkey Mountain is a park with an original concept placing the accent on a single species, the Barbary Macaque, living in a natural setting. You will discover them near the path, or high up in the trees as you make this attractive and unusual walk at your own pace. This formula allows direct contact with the monkeys: the Barbary Macaques will readily approach you to take from your hand the popcorn given to you at the entrance. A magnificent site... a protected area... The park is situated in a splendid forest of 24 hectares, offering a protected site to more than 200 Barbary Macaques living in full freedom. The forest paths laid out for the visitors pass through large areas reserved for the animals and necessary for their welfare and rest. The Monkey Montain is also a research center. More and more researchers are working in the park on research programs whose underlying theme is the social bahaviour of a developed and organised species. The monkeys of the park are a precious reserve population. Two reintroductions to North Africa have already been successfully completed. Around 600 Barbary Macaques were brought back to Morocco to strengthen the wild populations.
