1 Day Ourika Valley Trip

Your day trip in Ourika Valley begins at 9:00 a.m. from your accommodation in Marrakech. After a scenic drive through the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, follow the winding road along the river, passing through colorful landscapes and traditional Berber settlements.
Stop along the way to admire panoramic views and, if you wish, enjoy a short camel ride deeper into the valley.

Continue toward Setti Fatma, a popular local destination known for its refreshing streams, seven waterfalls, and terraced hills. Here, you’ll explore a region that still preserves traditional agricultural practices dating back centuries.
Take a guided hike to the first waterfall, surrounded by cliffs and greenery, then relax over a delicious Moroccan lunch in a restaurant overlooking the mountains — vegetarian options available.

In the afternoon, your day trip in Ourika Valley concludes with a peaceful return to Marrakech, filled with beautiful memories of nature, culture, and tranquility.
