The journey from Fes to Ouzoud is long but deeply rewarding. Leaving the ancient streets of the medina behind, travelers cross the fertile valleys and pine-covered hills of the Middle Atlas. Hours later, the thunder of water announces arrival at Ouzoud — Morocco’s natural jewel. The cascades plunge down rugged cliffs, creating rainbow mists and a lush paradise of olive trees and red earth. Visitors can descend into the gorge, ride small wooden boats across the basin, and share space with curious monkeys leaping between branches. For those staying in Fes who wish to balance history with nature, this trip offers the perfect retreat — a day of fresh air, rushing waters, and unforgettable views.
