Morocco's Highest Waterfalls
Visit Morocco's most spectacular waterfalls in the Middle Atlas foothills
Ouzoud Waterfalls are Morocco's highest and most spectacular waterfalls, plunging 110 meters in three major cascades into a lush gorge. Located in the Middle Atlas foothills, these magnificent falls create permanent rainbows in the mist and provide a stunning natural spectacle year-round. The area is home to wild Barbary apes that often interact playfully with visitors.
Take scenic walking paths to view the falls from multiple angles, including from the top, middle levels, and base. Optional boat rides take you close to the cascades. Enjoy lunch at terraced restaurants overlooking the waterfalls. The surrounding olive groves and traditional watermills add to the picturesque setting.
