Day trip to Ourika Valley From Marrakech:

The excursion to Ourika valley is one of the best things to do in and around Marrakech. Ourika river is deep-rooted in the High Atlas at an average altitude of 4.000 meters. At the end of the Atlas, Ourika is no less than 1.070 meters and has drawn the nearby valleys with sharp slopes.
Ourika is supplied on both sides by many valleys and ravines and sometimes its slopes are very steep. Ourika river can have a particularly high flow during heavy rainfall.
This system is what makes the Ourika Valley well-known for its virgin and lush aspect.
By visiting the Ourika Valley you will be able to get pleased by the discovery of a surprising environment, combined with traditional mountain style.
At halfway, you can branch off to Oukaïmeden (a main ski resort in Morocco which reaches 3.200 m altitude) or continue to Setti Fatma, the last village before the waterfalls!
All the way through the Ourika Valley, you will have the opportunity to see traditional Berber villages, even if you are at no more than 30 or 70 kilometers from Marrakech. In fact, this place is one of the best things to discover in and around Marrakech.
