Nature’s Wonder Near Marrakech

A Day of Nature, Culture, and Breathtaking Scenery

Leave the bustle of Marrakech behind and venture into the Middle Atlas Mountains to discover one of Morocco’s most awe-inspiring natural landmarks: the Ouzoud Waterfalls. This full-day excursion offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, peaceful landscapes, and authentic Berber culture.

After a scenic 2.5–3 hour drive through picturesque countryside dotted with olive groves and traditional villages, you'll arrive at the majestic falls—towering over 100 meters high, cascading into a series of turquoise pools below. Take a guided walk along the winding paths that lead to panoramic viewpoints and down to the base of the falls. Along the way, you might encounter Barbary macaques, playful monkeys that live in the surrounding forest.

At the bottom, you can hop on a traditional wooden raft for a short ride near the falls’ splash zone—a fun and refreshing experience! Local cafés and restaurants line the banks, where you can enjoy a delicious tagine lunch with the soothing sound of rushing water in the background.

This tour is perfect for nature lovers, photographers, families, and anyone looking to escape the city and reconnect with the beauty of Morocco’s outdoors. Whether you want to relax by the river, swim in the natural pools (season permitting), or hike through the area’s rugged terrain, Ouzoud offers an unforgettable escape.

  • Guided hike to multiple waterfall viewpoints

  • Optional boat ride near the base of the falls
