Ifrane is often called the "Little Switzerland of Morocco," a pristine mountain town nestled at 1,650 metres in the Middle Atlas range. Surrounded by vast cedar forests and crisp mountain air, it offers an ideal setting for athletic training. The altitude provides a natural advantage for building stamina, as the thinner air challenges the cardiovascular system and accelerates fitness gains.

Our sports facilities in Ifrane include multi-purpose grass and synthetic pitches, a regulation basketball court, volleyball nets, and a 400-metre athletics track. Natural swimming pools fed by mountain springs provide a refreshing environment for aquatic sessions. The town itself is safe, clean, and well-serviced, with a hospital only ten minutes from camp.

The surrounding landscape also lends itself to cross-country running, orienteering, and team relay races through forested trails. The cool climate, even in summer, means campers can train comfortably throughout the day without the heat exhaustion common in lower-altitude locations.

Campers in Ifrane stay in mountain lodges that blend traditional Moroccan architecture with modern comfort. Rooms are shared between four to six participants of similar ages and are furnished with sturdy bunk beds, individual storage shelves, and reading lights. Each lodge has heated common areas, essential during cooler mountain evenings.

Bathroom and shower facilities are located within each lodge building, with separate blocks for boys and girls. Hot water is available throughout the day. Common rooms in each lodge serve as social spaces where campers can relax, play board games, or gather for evening briefings.

The lodge grounds include open lawns for informal play, shaded terraces, and a central dining pavilion where all meals are served family-style. Night supervision is provided by resident animators who sleep in adjacent rooms, ensuring round-the-clock safety and support.

Each day at the Ifrane Multi-Sports Camp follows a structured timetable designed to balance intensive training with rest and recreation. The morning begins at 07:30 with a group warm-up and stretching session, followed by breakfast at 08:00. The first training block runs from 09:00 to 12:00 and focuses on a primary sport such as football or basketball, with technical drills, small-sided games, and tactical exercises led by specialist coaches.

After lunch and a rest period, the afternoon session from 14:30 to 17:00 shifts to a secondary sport -- volleyball, athletics, or swimming -- giving campers a well-rounded exposure to multiple disciplines. Relay races and team challenges are woven into the schedule to build camaraderie and competitive spirit.

Evenings feature lighter activities: team quizzes, talent shows, campfire storytelling, or film screenings. One evening during the week is dedicated to an inter-team tournament where campers compete for the Nawrass Sports Trophy, a highlight that builds anticipation throughout the programme.

The final day includes a sports festival where campers showcase their progress to fellow participants and visiting families. Certificates of participation and special awards for sportsmanship, most improved, and team spirit are presented in a closing ceremony.

All meals at the Ifrane camp are prepared on-site by our professional kitchen team using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The menu is fully halal and designed to fuel active bodies: high-protein breakfasts with eggs, bread, fruit, and dairy; hearty lunches featuring Moroccan tagines, grilled meats, salads, and couscous; afternoon snacks of seasonal fruit, nuts, and pastries; and balanced dinners with soups, grilled fish or chicken, vegetables, and desserts.

We accommodate vegetarian, vegan, and allergy-specific dietary requirements with advance notice. Hydration stations with filtered water are available across all camp areas, and sports drinks are provided during intensive training sessions. Our nutritional approach ensures campers maintain energy levels throughout the day while discovering the rich culinary traditions of Morocco.

Our Ifrane sports team comprises qualified coaches holding national federation certifications in their respective disciplines, supported by general animators with BAFA or equivalent youth-work qualifications. The camp maintains a strict maximum ratio of one animator for every eight children, ensuring personalised attention, safety, and effective skill development. A dedicated camp director oversees all operations and serves as the primary contact for parents.

Medical support is provided by an on-site first-aider available 24 hours a day, with direct access to the Ifrane provincial hospital for any emergencies. All staff undergo background checks, safeguarding training, and first-aid certification before deployment. Night supervisors are stationed in each lodge block, and a detailed emergency protocol covers everything from minor injuries to severe weather contingencies.

Ifrane is most easily reached via Fez-Saiss International Airport, located approximately 70 kilometres (one hour by road) from the camp. Nawrass provides optional group transfers from Fez airport on designated arrival and departure days, included in the camp package for groups of ten or more children. Individual transfers can be arranged at an additional cost.

From Rabat-Sale Airport, the drive to Ifrane takes approximately three and a half hours via the A2 motorway. From Mohammed V International Airport in Casablanca, the journey is roughly four and a half hours. For families travelling from Spain or other European cities, direct flights to Fez operate from Madrid, Barcelona, Paris, Brussels, and Amsterdam throughout the spring and summer season.

Detailed travel instructions, meeting-point maps, and emergency contact numbers are sent to all registered families two weeks before the camp start date. Our logistics coordinator is available by phone and email to assist with travel planning.

Nawrass offers a comprehensive insurance package for 450 MAD per child, covering the entire duration of the camp stay. The policy includes civil liability, personal accident coverage (medical expenses up to 150,000 MAD), repatriation assistance, and luggage protection. This insurance is underwritten by a European-licensed insurer and complies with French and Moroccan regulatory requirements for organised youth travel.

Parents who prefer to use their own travel or health insurance may opt out of the Nawrass package, provided they supply proof of equivalent coverage at least ten days before the camp start date. In all cases, campers must present a valid European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or equivalent documentation upon arrival. Our administrative team is available to help families navigate the insurance requirements.
