Ourika Valley Day trip Marrakech Morocco

The Ourika Valley is located only 30 km from Marrakech. It is a destination that will appeal to those who want to escape the bustle, buzz, and heat of the red city of Marrakech. Spend hours sitting at a café along the river, while your feet are actually in the water! Or, hike to the many waterfalls, and feel refreshed in the cool mountain water. Indeed, the Ourika Valley remained well preserved and is still authentic. It allows the visitor to discover a Moroccan mountain way-of-life that will be hard to find elsewhere. There are also several places to visit while in the Valley: - Setti Fatma – Nestled in a valley below the High Atlas Mountains, this village is the ideal place to stop for lunch, and take a hike to the 7 waterfalls above. - Tnine de l'Ourika – Explore the souk in this small mountain village.
