The Oued Boumerdès is a river of Algeria located in Kabylia within the framework of the Province of Boumerdès.[1]
Presentation[edit]
The Boumerdès stream is one of the main rivers of Boumerdès Province that finds its mouth in the Mediterranean Sea after receiving the water flood from its tributaries.
This river takes its source in the heights of the current commune of Beni Amrane in the Khachna Massif which shelters the peak of Bouzegza Mount.
At an altitude of 620 meters above sea level near the villages of Talilt and Toulmout, Oued Boumerdès is born to take its course on a river bed that juts out into the current town of Boumerdès.
This area is rich in water resources thus feeds the Oued which then traces its route between the villages of Ouled Boumerdès, Merchicha, Meraldene, Tizouighine before reaching the plateau of the village Sidi Yahia.
