Activities in THE OUZOUD WATERFALL.

On arrival at Ouzoud, you will find many small eateries that serve excellent traditional Moroccan cuisine, souvenir stalls or cheap hotel offer. However, it is easy to overcome without being harassed too, and begin its descent to the sesame awaited following a well arranged path and dotted with olive trees. Arrived at the foot of waterfalls, one can indulge in the joys of swimming, enjoy a meal feet in the water, or just sip a mint tea by observing the Armoury Rhesus Macaques (monkeys of the desert).

THE WATERFALL OUZOUD

If swimming is not for you, you can cross the river via the wooden bridge or, for a few dirhams, one of the small boats humorously named "Le France", "The Phocéa" and "Titanic.". You may like to go to the sources  of Ouzoud located approximately 6 km. You go through an olive grove for 1 to 2 Km before overtaking an old oil press. Arrived at the sources, you  can put yourself in a swimsuit and jump in its cool water.

The preserved tourist site, quiet and natural, entirely pedestrian, offers many campsites as basic huts / rudimentary huts of bamboo and reed.

Ouzoud has all the charm to spend a sweet holiday in Morocco. No wonder simply because Ouzoud means "Sweet" in Amarzigh.
