The journey to Ourika takes you through the panoramic High Atlas Mountains, with a view of colourful lush landscapes along the way. Marvel at the backdrop of the Atlas Mountains as you leave Marrakech – a true contrast of the varied landscape of Morocco. There will be a chance to see Berber villages along the way as you travel towards Ourika River. The area is renewed for its spectacular green scenery, supplied by the system valleys and ravines that keep it lush.

If time permits there are various activities you can do – visit the Ourika falls, head off to the ski resort of Oukaïmeden, or continue on to Setti Fatma to see the Seven Waterfalls. After a lunch enjoyed at one of the restaurants alongside the river (accessed by one of many hanging bridges), you will travel back to Marrakech, taking time to marvel at the meadows and weeping willows, as well as the clay-built villages that hang to the cliffs.
