Day trip to Ourika Valley – Morocco – Atlas Mountains – Marrakech

The High Atlas, North Africa’s greatest mountain range, contains some of the most intriguing and beautiful regions of Morocco.

Ourika Valley is a valley in the Moroccan High Atlas along the Ourika River. It is a popular day-trip destination of Marrakech. It is located around 30 km from Marrakech, and is essentially populated by Berber people speaking Shilha. Despite its proximity to Marrakech, it is still considered a relatively well-preserved valley, by its very nature a and traditional mountain way of life. The Ourika falls at Setti Fatma are a popular day trip.

Setti-Fatma is the last small town which is accessible by the paved route. It is the departure point for many excursions to the nearby mountains. The most prized and most easy hike consists of mounting the length of a mountain torrent in order to discover the cascades.
