What to expect
Embark on a breathtaking full-day journey to the Ourika Valley, nestled in the heart of the High Atlas Mountains just an hour's drive from Marrakech. Your adventure begins with a scenic drive through the Moroccan countryside, passing traditional Berber villages, lush green landscapes, and terraced fields. Along the way, you’ll stop at an authentic Berber home to learn about their culture, customs, and daily life.
Continuing deeper into the valley, marvel at the winding river, shaded orchards, and red clay houses perched on the mountainsides. You’ll visit a local women’s cooperative that produces argan oil, offering a chance to see the traditional methods of oil extraction and sample natural beauty products.
The highlight of the day is a guided hike to the famous Setti Fatma waterfalls. Trek through rocky paths, cross wooden bridges, and enjoy the cool mist as you climb to see the cascading falls—an invigorating reward with panoramic views of the valley below. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes for this moderate-level hike.
After the hike, relax and unwind with a delicious traditional Moroccan lunch by the river. Savor authentic flavors with freshly made tagines, couscous, salads, and mint tea, all enjoyed in a serene setting surrounded by nature.
As the day winds down, you'll have time to stroll along the riverside, browse local crafts, or simply soak in the peaceful mountain atmosphere before returning to Marrakech in the late afternoon.
