Abstract

Situated in the Aurès, at the beginning of the desert, between T’kout and Ghassira, in the heart of the mountain, the balconies of Ghouffi represent an extraordinary site which is may be one of the most beautiful of Algeria. Listed in a Unesco World Heritage, Ghouffi is an unexplored destination. Built in the depth of a great canyon, Ghouffi is an old Berber village, with its old buildings already there for over four centuries. You have to do a long trip to go there but the trip is worth it. Ghouffi is accessible by bus or car. Ghouffi is situated in the Gorges of Tighanimine, between Batna and Biskra, a picturesque road, full of ancestral Chaouis villages.
