The Ourika Valley (1 hour and 45 minutes from Marrakech by car) is famous for its waterfalls, which are especially refreshing during the warm season (the people of Marrakech know this well!). We offer you a unique and slightly sporty way to explore them: dressed in a wetsuit and equipped with a harness and ropes (all equipment meets European standards, as do our instructors' certifications), you will descend the Tazitounte canyon. Few outdoor activities are as varied as canyoning in Morocco: you will navigate the riverbed, passing by waterfalls, natural pools, lush vegetation, and breathtaking landscapes. On the agenda: walking through water, abseiling down waterfalls, and refreshing swims, all under the safe guidance of your instructor.
No experience or extraordinary physical condition is required to enjoy this adventure and the little taste of excitement it brings: the course is accessible to everyone. After approximately two hours of descent, you’ll settle by the banks of the Ourika River for a well-deserved picnic with your feet in the water (or almost!). Away from the crowds, enjoy a peaceful moment to the gentle sound of flowing water (the children can take the opportunity to swim) before heading back to Marrakech.
For the more adventurous among you (adults only), a second canyoning route is available, allowing for the descent of the 7 waterfalls of the Ourika. In this case, plan for about 3 to 4 hours of canyoning and a good dose of adrenaline!

HOW TO PROPERLY PREPARE FOR YOUR CANYONING EXPERIENCE IN MOROCCO ?
When booking, please specify your preferred date, the wetsuit size for each participant, and any allergies or special dietary requirements for the picnic.
Make sure to bring shoes with good grip that can go in the water (non-smooth sneakers, Palladium, or Decathlon water shoes), a change of shoes for the rest of the day, a swimsuit to wear from the morning, a change of underwear, a towel, sunscreen, one bottle of water per person, a water-resistant backpack, and ideally waterproof pouches for your phones. You might also consider bringing cereal bars or dry cookies if you don't have a hearty breakfast before leaving.
