Escape the hustle and bustle of Marrakech and journey into the Ourika Valley, a lush oasis nestled in the foothills of the High Atlas Mountains. Just an hour’s drive from the city, this picturesque valley offers a perfect blend of nature, culture, and relaxation.

Your adventure begins with a scenic drive through Berber villages, where you’ll catch glimpses of traditional earthen houses and terraced fields. Along the way, you’ll stop at a local Berber home, where you can experience warm hospitality and learn about daily life in the mountains.

We’ll then visit a traditional market (on market days) or stop by a women’s cooperative to see how argan oil is made using age-old techniques.

The highlight of the trip is a guided walk to the Setti Fatma waterfalls, where you can hike through stunning landscapes, breathe in the crisp mountain air, and even dip your feet in the cool, refreshing waters.

For lunch, enjoy a delicious Moroccan meal by the river, with tagines sizzling over charcoal as you relax to the soothing sound of flowing water.

Whether you’re looking for adventure, cultural insights, or simply a peaceful escape, this day trip to Ourika Valley is an unforgettable experience!
