A day trip to Ourika Valley is a perfect way to escape the busy streets of Marrakech. Just 38 km away, this beautiful valley is full of green plants, rivers, and fresh air. The drive takes you through pretty landscapes and small Berber villages, where you can see how locals live and visit their markets.
One of the best parts of the trip is the waterfalls, a peaceful place to relax and enjoy nature. This trip is great for anyone looking for quiet, natural beauty, and a chance to see the Berber culture. Whether you hike to the waterfalls, explore the villages, or enjoy the calm atmosphere, visiting Ourika Valley will improve your Marrakech experience.
We will pick you up from Marrakech in the morning and start our day heading toward the Atlas Mountains. Ourika is located in the south of Marrakech, known for its weekly Berber Market (Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays). On the way, you'll be surprised by wonderful landscapes full of vibrant colors as we move through the hillsides. We will continue driving for about an hour through the Mountains towards Setti Fatma where you can feel the refreshing waters of the seven waterfalls, the beautiful cliffs, and the green valleys. You will explore a region that still practices a medieval agricultural tradition. Once we arrive at the valley, you'll have time to walk around enjoying nature, and then you can hike with a local guide to the first waterfall and back for lunch in a nice restaurant with a beautiful view of the valley over the mountains, after lunch you have free time before we drive back to Marrakech.
