Get in

Bechar is on the national highway N6 about 600 km from Oran. The road is paved but speeds are limited. Although Bechar is close to and would be easily accessible from Morocco, the border has been closed since 1994 due to political conflict.

The national rail company SNTF has a daily overnight passenger service from Oran, taking just over 12 hours, with arrival in Bechar in the early morning.
