About This Excursion

Cascades d'Ouzoud

The Ouzoud Falls are widely considered the most spectacular waterfalls in North Africa, cascading roughly 110 meters down a series of red ochre cliffs into the Oued el-Abid gorge below. The surrounding region is lush and preserved, a striking contrast to the dry plains around Marrakech.

This full-day excursion takes you to the falls themselves, where troops of Barbary macaques and a variety of birds are commonly spotted along the trails. After exploring the cascades and viewpoints, you'll sit down for a traditional tajine lunch at a local restaurant before the drive back.

It's one of the most popular nature day trips from Marrakech — a refreshing, green escape that feels worlds away from the city.
