Djebel Abiod

It is well worth climbing Djebel Abiod (c. 400m/1,300ft) for the sake of the views it offers; the path leaves just outside El Haouaria. From the top there is a magnificent prospect of the west coast and the offshore islands of Zembra and Zembretta, the tip of Cape Bon with its lighthouse, and the northeastern coast of the peninsula, with the pumping station near Kelibia for the submarine pipeline carrying natural gas from Algeria to Sicily.
