Want to get away from the busy city of Marrakech for a day trip to the Atlas Mountains? Consider visiting Ouzoud Falls, the tallest waterfalls in Morocco! This simple day trip plan lets you enjoy nature without needing to stay overnight.
Here are the day trip highlights:
We will start our day trip from Marrakech to the Ouzoud waterfalls by picking you up from your hotel or riad. Sit back and relax during the scenic drive through the Middle Atlas Mountains. When you arrive at Ouzoud Falls, get ready to see water plunging 110 meters (330 feet) down into a lush gorge. Take some time to admire the falls and take some stunning photos.
After that, explore the area! Walk down the paths and enjoy the fresh air as you pass through the olive groves. Keep an eye out for Barbary macaques (monkeys) that live there.
When it is around midday, have a tasty Moroccan meal at one of the cafes or restaurants near the falls. Try dishes like tagines and couscous while listening to the soothing sound of the water.
Afterward, you can take a boat ride on the Ouzoud River to see the falls up close. Or, try renting a traditional hand-powered mill for a unique experience.
If you want to relax, find a spot by the river, soak up the sun, and enjoy the sound of the water. If it’s warm enough, you can even swim in the pools below the falls.
As the day comes to an end, say goodbye to the Ouzoud waterfalls and return to Marrakech. Remember the fun you had as you travel back. Our day trip from Marrakech to Ouzoud Falls ends as we drop you off back at your accommodation.

“Lovely day trip from Marrakech to Ouzoud Falls. We first started by driving through the Atlas Mountains, and we stopped for a break. The scenery is worth the view. The day trip does include walking on rugged terrain, but it was fun. A surprise was meeting the monkeys so funny, Maybe bring nuts with you or you can buy them on-site. The waterfalls were amazing! I even ended up doing a boat trip closer to the waterfalls. The views were spectacular and well worth going for.”
