Ourika Valley, Berber Hospitality, and Setti Fatma
Take a short drive from Marrakech to the foothills of the Atlas Mountains.
Travel along the Ourika Valley, passing through a succession of mountain villages clinging to the hillsides.
Stop to admire wonderful landscapes filled with vibrant colours as you move through the valley.
Make your first stop at a traditional house belonging to a Berber family living in the valley. The family often opens the doors of their kitchen, sharing bread, honey, butter, and olive oil.
Ride camels for half an hour deeper into the valley.
Visit Setti Fatma, a favourite weekend destination for many Moroccans. It is highly appreciated for its beautiful streams and seven waterfalls, striking cliffs, and green valleys.
Walk around the valley and take photos of the green terraces surrounding the Atlas Mountains.
Continue to the first waterfall, then return for lunch.
Enjoy an authentic Moroccan lunch.
Return to Marrakech.
