Excursion Trekking mount yemma gouraya tour at Bejaia
Cruise line: SilverseaDifficulty:
Mount Yemma Gouraya rises as a look-out over the whole region, with a fort built by the Spaniards in the 16th century. It is also a place of pilgrimage and offerings for the locals, being the burial place of the city's patron saint, Yemma Gouraya, who seems to be watching over Bejaïa.
To reach the tomb and the ruins of the fort you have to climb to the top of the mountain where you can enjoy the sweeping views on the whole city of Bejaïa whilst your guide unravels the secrets behind the site.
