Horse riding, ATV, hot-air ballooning or golf? Even skiing is
possible close by…. Each time you come you can find new activities…Whether
by 4WD, on foot, on horseback or by camel, Morocco is home to an
amazing variety of landscapes.

indulge in a wide range of watersports ranging from scuba diving and
motor boating
to sailing, surfing and windsurfing, or
simply swimming and sunbathing. Hunting and freshwater and deep-sea
fishing are also widely practiced. Without
forgetting golf, skiing and spas. IGUANA SAHARA TOURS All the best
tours & things to do in Morocco.
Aerial view
Fly high to really take advantage of your stay. This is now possible
in Marrakesh. You can now admire the imperial city from the
air in a
hot-air balloon and, at the same time, observe the stimulating
activities available to visitors. Those immense soft green areas?
They are the prestigious golf courses which give Marrakesh such an
international reputation. Those horses? You are looking at horse
riding clubs or the Royal Polo Club. If you are more interested in
motor sports, don't worry. Try go-karting or riding an ATV, for
example. If you take a trip in a hot-air balloon, you may even see
the large crowd trying to finish the annual Marrakesh International
Marathon.
Sun in the mountains
The Oukaimeden ski resort is open from Christmas to Easter. It is
only 75km from your hotel swimming pool so you could dive
in when
you come back from the ski runs… What a miracle… You can return to
the same mountains in the Summer to admire
the Neolithic rock
carvings found there.
Trips into the valleys You can visit the Ourika Valley which is about 30km from Marrakesh:
granary for the area, with its fields for different crops laid
out like a draughtboard, will often pleasantly surprise you: its
waterfalls punctuating the beautiful unspoilt scenery, for example,
or the Yagour rock carvings. Asni village, with its very beautiful
red kasbah, should be seen. The valley of the same name gives access
to some sumptuous gorges. Ouirgane is a very popular spot for
Marrakshis. Don't hesitate to take a break for lunch in one
of the
many restaurants in the area: another opportunity to savour the
delicious local cooking.
To remember Marrakesh, with its continually renewed activities, will allow you
to come back from your holiday looking unashamedly well,
in great
shape and with lots to tell. |
