Following the course of the Ourika River, you can admire the magnificent landscape of the High Atlas, totally different from that of Marrakech, and browse the scenery and breathtaking High Atlas. You will see white-capped peaks tower over the valley, and traditional villages nestled on the hillsides. Along the way, you will visit a traditional Berber house to enjoy a mint tea with the locals and know about their old and simple lifestyle. You may have the opportunity to visit the weekly Berber market only on Monday or Thursday. Your guide will take you to discover the wonderful panoramas of the waterfalls in Setti Fatma and enjoy a hike in the village through the sumptuous Ourika valley carved into the Atlas’ foothills.
