Cascades D'ouzoud


Where is the waterfall? It is high above the valley and the only way to see it was to hike up these boulders. You don't need a guide but having a strong guy can help you navigate some of these huge and slippery boulders. Some act as porters as they carry piggyback the toddlers of tourists. Our taxi driver steered us to a guide and we followed him up. It wasn't that difficult but I soon realised that coming down could be more difficult so half way up I decided to quit. We both quit and instead sat down to have a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice. It costs us 10 dirhams here but it was only 3 dirhams in Marrakech. The oranges were well chilled by having been left in the freezing cold water of the waterfalls which made really nice orange juice.
