Whitewater Rafting
Over the past decade Rafting (and Kayaking) in Morocco has grown rapidly in popularity. Basically, where there are mountains there’s valleys and gorges, and where there’s valleys and gorges … there’s rivers!
In the High Atlas, north-west of Marrakesh you can ride through the Ali Mohammed Gorge on the river Oum-er-Rbia. The journey starts off gently but soon livens up with a succession of Grade 4 rapids.
In the Mid-Atlas, the best river is the Ahannsel, which cuts through some beautiful scenery, glides past peaceful villages and then blitzes and boils over some of Morocco’s most exciting white water rapids.
Winter (November to April) is the best time to ride the rivers but they are open all year round and the trips are guided so are good for any age or ability level.
