- Marrakech - A day trip to the Ourika Valley from Marrakech is a fantastic way to experience the natural beauty and cultural richness of Morocco. The journey typically begins around 9:00 AM, taking you southward for approximately an hour and a half to reach Setti Fatma, the main village in the valley. However, this trip is not just about reaching a destination; it includes several stops that allow you to appreciate the stunning landscapes and local culture along the way.
- Ourika Valley - Panoramic Views: One of the first stops on your journey will likely be at a viewpoint that offers breathtaking panoramic vistas of the Atlas Mountains and surrounding valleys. This is an excellent opportunity for photography and simply soaking in the beauty of nature.
- Oulmes - Argan Oil Shop Visit: A visit to an argan oil shop is another highlight. Here, you can learn about the traditional process of producing argan oil, which is native to Morocco. Many tours include a chance to sample various products made from argan oil, such as cosmetics and culinary oils, providing insight into its significance in Moroccan culture.
- Setti Fatma et les 7 Cascades - Hiking Adventure: After these enriching experiences, participants usually embark on a hike towards waterfalls in Setti Fatma. The trek can be challenging due to steep sections and rocky terrain; therefore, wearing appropriate footwear is essential for safety. Guides are typically available to assist hikers through difficult parts of the climb.
- Ourika Valley - Berber House Tour: Exploring a traditional Berber house offers an intimate look into the lifestyle and customs of the Berber people who inhabit this region. This experience often includes discussions about their daily lives, traditions, and how they adapt to their environment.
- Setti-Fatma - Lunch Options: After your hike, there may be opportunities for lunch at local restaurants where you can enjoy authentic Moroccan cuisine while relaxing by riverside settings—some even allow you to dip your feet in cool waters after your trek.
