Join us for a one day tour to Ouzoud Waterfalls. After breakfast we will drive you 3 hours to get to Ouzoud Waterfalls: This beautiful green, moist location in the front ranges of the High Atlas is a welcome relief to the heat and busy city of Marrakech. A day in nature 3 hours away. And if the weather is cool and rainy, even better! The falls swell with runoff and can be spectacular in the rain. The gorge below the falls is an endless series of pools that offer some fine day hikes with varying views up and down the valley. This future designated bioreserve is home to Barbary apes and makes for some interesting bird watching too. Nearby Berber villages in the surrounding mountains are perfect for walks any time of year, any kind of weather. Have lunch in one of the many terraced restaurants beside the falls, or just chill out with a glass of wine on a riad terrace overlooking the falls. This day involves walking on cliffside trails and stairs climbs. Not recommended in July and August.
