Ouzoud Waterfalls Day Trip

Journey east from Marrakech into the foothills of the Middle Atlas to discover the Ouzoud Waterfalls — the most spectacular waterfalls in Morocco and one of the most breathtaking natural wonders in all of North Africa. Three hours from the city, Ouzoud’s twin falls plunge 110 metres into a turquoise pool surrounded by lush olive groves, wild fig trees, and mist-drenched rainbow light.

This full-day trip combines a scenic drive through Berber villages, a guided walk down to the base of the falls, a traditional Moroccan lunch at one of the terrace restaurants overlooking the cascade, and an encounter with the resident Barbary macaque monkeys who roam freely through the surrounding forest. Swimming in the natural pool at the foot of the falls is a highlight not to be missed in summer.

✓ 110-Metre Cascading Waterfalls

Stand in awe at the foot of Morocco’s most magnificent waterfall — three tiers of thundering water plunging 110 metres into a stunning turquoise pool, framed by olive trees and rainbow mist.

✓ Swimming in Natural Pools (Seasonal)

Take a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear natural pools at the base of the falls during the warmer months — one of the most exhilarating experiences available on a day trip from Marrakech.

✓ Barbary Macaque Monkeys

Encounter Morocco’s famous Barbary macaques — playful wild monkeys that roam freely through the olive groves and fig trees surrounding the falls, delighting visitors of all ages.

✓ Boat Ride Under the Falls

Board a traditional rowing boat and glide across the pool directly beneath the cascade — getting up close to the thundering curtain of water for an unforgettable sensory experience.

✓ Scenic Middle Atlas Drive

Travel through the rolling Berber landscapes of the Middle Atlas foothills — a beautiful patchwork of olive groves, traditional villages, and red-earth mountains on the road to Ouzoud.
