This dense green valley runs deep into the High Atlas Mountains. With its donkeys tethered near to mountain streams and typical Berber hamlets, a real invitation to discover deep Morocco.

This day trip to Ourika Valley from Marrakech is ideal for nature lovers and trekking into one of the beautiful waterfalls, or just relax and have a snack at one of the local cafes under the shade of the walnut trees next to the stream.
