1 Day Ouzoud Waterfalls Excursion from Marrakech
Why go?
Swap the heat of Marrakech for a day by the water. The Ouzoud Waterfalls, in the foothills of the Middle Atlas, drop more than 100 metres in several cascades into the El-Abid river, surrounded by olive trees and green terraces.
Walk down the paths to the different viewpoints, take a small traditional boat to the foot of the falls, swim in the natural pools in summer and have lunch on a terrace facing the cascades. Barbary macaques live in the trees around the falls.
A refreshing nature day with a private driver, pickup at your hotel or riad in Marrakech and return in the late afternoon.
