Choose your experience
The Ouzoud Waterfalls guided hike departs from Marrakesh for a full-day excursion to one of Morocco's tallest waterfalls, located roughly 150 kilometres northeast of the city in the Atlas foothills. The falls drop around 110 metres in a series of tiered cascades into the El-Abid river gorge, and the surrounding area is home to wild Barbary macaques. A guided hike leads through olive groves and along the canyon rim to viewpoints above the main drop.
The boat ride component takes visitors across the pool at the base of the falls, offering a close view of the cascades and the red-rock cliffs behind them. The full-day format covers transport from Marrakesh, guiding throughout, and the boat ride. Travellers should check their booking confirmation for exact departure times, group size, and any meals or entrance fees included in the package.
