Chréa is a town in Algeria, located in Blida Province, Bougara District, in a mountainous area named Tell Atlas, near Blida. This municipality has the Chréa National Park, one of the smallest national parks of the country, and a ski resort.[1] Within the national park is one of the few relict populations of the endangered primate, the Barbary Macaque, Macaca sylvanus; this species of primate originally had a much wider range in northern Algeria and Morocco.[2]
