From your hotel or riad in the morning.
An Atlas Mountains day trip from Marrakech that covers three valleys of the High Atlas in one day, by road with short walks: the Ourika valley with its river and terraced villages, the Asni valley on the road south with its market town, and the Imlil valley at the foot of Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa.
The day is about the views and the variety of the mountains rather than one long walk: tea in a Berber house, viewpoints over the valleys, and a short walk with a local guide near Imlil. To hike to the Setti Fatma waterfalls, choose the Ourika Valley Day Trip; for a longer walk below Toubkal, the Imlil & High Atlas Day Trip.
