In only about 170km from Marrakech, you can get on a day trip to Ouzoud where you’ll discover a spectacular waterfall with permanent rainbows on sunny days. You’ll have the chance to immerse yourself in the magnificence of nature, where you can have an adventurous hike through the Olive groves to the source of the waterfall. After picking you up from Marrakech around 08:00 am we will be heading towards the north to Ouzoud, one of the highest cascades in North Africa(100 m high). The road will take us through peach, apricot, olive farms, and the Berber Villages. Once we arrive, you’ll have a hike in the village of Ouzoud enjoying the beautiful scenery of its green valley and the sounds of its permanent residents. After the hike, you’ll start a challenging walk journey downhill through a path that will take you from the top to the bottom of the cascades, you’ll see the cascades falling in their full force forming a magic view with a rainbow in the middle. On the way down you might catch a glimpse of some Barbary apes that expect some nuts from you. You'll continue walking all the way down to the bottom of the waterfall where you'll have the opportunity for swimming, take a small boat, or just have a rest and maybe lunch in a local restaurant next to the stream before you start walking up where you'll meet the driver to head back to Marrakech.
