Next, we visit the Argan oil cooperative. This locally produced oil, found only in Morocco, is handmade by women. The production process is very labor-intensive, resulting in a rich oil with amazing properties for the skin and a delicious taste for cooking. The cooperative also provides income and education for local women.

Asni - We then leave the Ourika road to take a mountain road towards the second valley, Asni. Along the way, we offer the possibility of a light walk to admire the landscape and soak in the calm and fantastic views of the Atlas Mountains’ foothills. The route is very scenic, and we can stop at any locations you find worth it, especially if you want to take photos. On the way, we encounter many local children from the villages, and you are welcome to bring school stationery (pencils, erasers, notepads) or small items of clothing (hats, gloves, socks) to distribute, as they are always needed.
Lunch is set at a family Berber house overlooking a traditional village with a stunning view of Toubkal mountain (4165 m altitude) and the Atlas range. The meal is cooked with local produce, and we can also cater to vegetarians.
After lunch, we head back to Marrakech via the Asni Valley, a lush area with a great variety of fruit trees providing a wide range of green tones against the red earth.
- Oukaimeden - Feel like a nomad and experience a camel ride around the mountains guided by a native Berber. The 30-minute ride is followed by mint tea under a traditional tent.
