    Hiking

    Volubilis is the largest archaeological site in Morocco. It covers a total area of approximately 40 hectares. Around 18 hectares of this are open to the public. Volubilis is an example of an overall architectural ensemble. Much can be learned from him about the organization of Punic, pre-Roman and Roman administration in Africa.

    Volubilis is the largest Roman archaeological site in Morocco and is located north of Meknes. Many elements of the former city are still clearly recognizable today: the imposing Temple of Jupiter, the Arch of Caracalla, the Basilica, sophisticated sewage systems, and intricate mosaics.

    During Roman rule, Volubilis developed into a prosperous and important city and later even became the capital of the northwestern province of Mauretania Tingitana. The exceptionally well-preserved settlement provides a vivid impression of daily life in the Roman Empire.
