On the way to the cascades you can admire the views and drive through desert hills, while passing palm groves and old Berber villages that still respect their traditions and have some of the most beautiful natural scenes in the entire south.What is more, You can also admire on the hill sides 100-years-old olive groves and almond trees. Upon arrival to the destination, a local guide will help you have one of the most relaxing experiences, while trekking a little bit from the top to the bottom of this wonderful oasis. While you listen to interesting facts about Ouzoud Falls, which translate as the “act of grinding grain” because in this area water mills are used to grind wheat grain into flour, you will follow the path to the lip of the falls where you will see how the cascades tumble down into a natural amphitheater formed by red-colored rock cliffs. At the bottom of the cascade you can pass with a boat to the other side while taking a look at beautiful rainbows that form in the mist created by the plunging waters. On the footpath you will also have a chance to see wild monkeys in their natural habitat. You will relax over lunch (own expense) at one of the restaurants along the path to the falls, after having taken in the full beauty of the area. After a relaxing afternoon, we will head back to Marrakech, dropping you off at your hotel or riad.
