About this tour

Ouzoud, located in the Azilal province of Morocco, is famed for its breathtaking waterfalls, known as the Ouzoud Waterfalls (Cascades d’Ouzoud). Situated approximately 150 kilometers (93 miles) northeast of Marrakech, this stunning natural wonder is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country.

Highlights

A short hike through olive groves and almond trees leads you to the edge of the gorge, where the majestic Ouzoud Waterfalls come into view. The sight of the water plunging down rugged cliffs, surrounded by vibrant rainbows and mist, is truly awe-inspiring.
Descending along well-maintained pathways, you’ll feel the cool spray of the falls as you approach the base. A vibrant tapestry of colors greets you, with rainbows dancing in the mist and the lush greenery providing a refreshing contrast to the arid surroundings.

Itinerary

Starting on a day trip from Marrakech to the enchanting Ouzoud Waterfalls is like stepping into a natural wonderland where the soothing sound of cascading water and lush green landscapes take center stage.

The journey begins in Marrakech, and as you venture into the Atlas Mountains, the scenery transforms from bustling cityscape to picturesque mountainous terrain. Along the way, you’ll pass through traditional Berber villages, their adobe homes blending seamlessly with the earth-toned landscape, providing glimpses into the local way of life.

Boat rides are available for a unique perspective, allowing you to get up close to the base of the falls and witness the sheer power of nature. The resident Barbary macaques, playful and curious, might make an appearance, adding an element of wildlife charm to the experience.

Lunch at a riverside restaurant offers a chance to savor traditional Moroccan cuisine while enjoying panoramic views of the falls. The rhythmic sound of cascading water becomes the soundtrack to your meal, creating a serene ambiance.

For the adventurous at heart, guided hikes around the falls or a swim in the refreshing pools provide opportunities to fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Ouzoud.
