Michlifen Resort & Golf.

Perched at 1,650 meters in the Middle Atlas Mountains, Michlifen Resort & Golf trades Morocco’s typical desert aesthetic for an alpine retreat identity. Often referred to as "Little Switzerland," the setting defines the property’s chalet-style architecture, where timber, slate, and stone create a high-altitude lodge atmosphere designed by André Paccard. The standout feature is the Michlifen Golf & Country Club, home to the first Jack Nicklaus Signature mountain course in Africa, which winds through cedar forests and rocky outcrops. Beyond the greens, the 3,500 m² spa and a massive indoor pool provide a focus on wellness. With multiple dining venues ranging from L’Oriental to the lodge-like Le Chalet, it functions as a self-contained sanctuary for those looking to swap the heat of Fez or Marrakech for cool mountain air and forest trails.
