Overview
The Ouzoud falls drop about 110 m in three stages into a gorge of the El Abid river, in the Middle Atlas foothills some 150 km north-east of Marrakech.
The day involves a walk down through olive terraces to the pools at the bottom, a short boat ride to the base of the falls, and lunch on a terrace with the water in view. Barbary macaques live in the woodland above the gorge.
