Skiing is possible during several months per year. Other ski resorts include Mischliffen in the Middle Atlas, on the doorstep of F s and Meknes. Permits are necessary for trout streams, lakes and pike lakes, and are issued by the Waters and Forests Department or local clubs. Several ports are equipped for deep sea-fishing, such as Dakhla in the Sahara and Mohammedia near Casablanca. There are horseriding clubs in all major towns, notably Casablanca, Rabat, Marrakech, Agadir and F s.
Several clubs organise pony treks in the Middle Atlas.
Golf is very popular in Morocco, partly because King Hassan II was an internationally ranked practitioner of the game. Some of the best-known of the country's 16 golf courses are located at the Royal Dar es Salaam Golf Club in Rabat, which has three courses and annually hosts the internationally renowned Hassan II Trophy. The third course, set around lakes, palm trees and eucalyptus, is the 5 star Golf du Soleil , which is a 27-hole par 72. The Marrakech Royal Golf Club is an 18-hole par 72 course located at the foot of the Atlas mountains. The Mahoammed VI Golf Trophy is held in Dar Essalam Royal Golf course in Rabat at the end of March.
