List of national parks of Morocco

Toubkal, at 4,167 metres (13,671 ft), in Toubkal National Park

There are 11 national parks in Morocco. Toubkal National Park, established in 1942, is the oldest^[1] and by far the most visited.^[2] The parks are situated rather well in-line,^[3] so it aleady allows wildlife migration to some extent. The only missing component in this wildlife corridor is a gap between Al-Hoceima and Seghir (so roughly at the location of Hakkama). Closing this gap would facilitate wildlife passage (of mainly birds) to the Spanish park of Los Alcornocales.
