Ouzoud Waterfalls Day Trip from Marrakech
The Ouzoud Waterfalls are the highest falls in North Africa, dropping about 110 metres into a green gorge in the foothills of the Middle Atlas, around 150 km north-east of Marrakech. On this private day trip you walk down to the pools, take a small boat close to the falls, and watch wild Barbary macaques playing in the olive trees.
