This journey into the Middle Atlas mountains offers a stark contrast to the medina's bustle, combining adventure with authentic landscape photography.
Escape the energy of Marrakech and discover the stunning beauty of Ouzoud Waterfalls. Admire the highest waterfalls in Morocco, meet playful monkeys, and enjoy breathtaking views along scenic trails.

Insider tips
- ★Arrive early in the morning to avoid midday crowds and secure better boat ride timing
- ★Wear water-resistant shoes or sandals with grip—paths are slippery and the boat ride splashes significantly
- ★Bring small bills or coins; monkeys are accustomed to visitors, but don't hand-feed or make direct eye contact
- ★Pack sunscreen and a hat; the riverside terrain offers limited shade despite tree cover
