Amazing architecture, beach resorts, and busy markets are some of Morocco’s biggest tourist draws, but these aren’t the only reasons why you should consider exploring it. The natural beauty of this African country is equally impressive, and here are three of its biggest wonders.

Ouzoud Falls

Located around 150 km away from Marrakech, Ouzoud Falls is worth the ride because it’s the country’s most impressive waterfall. A lot of tourists lucky enough to visit it enjoy taking boat rides at the bottom of the falls and observing a colony of monkeys that inhabit the surrounding olive trees.

Erg Chebbi

A significant part of Morocco is covered by Sahara, but you don’t even have to step inside the dessert to fully appreciate it. Erg Chebbi offers a similar experience because it consists of dunes formed by wind-blown sand, and most travelers explore it by joining camping trips or taking camel and ATV rides.

Todra Gorge

Passionate hikers will feel right at home in Morocco. If you happen to be one of them and aren’t sure where to start your hiking adventure, Todra Gorge is the place to be. This cliff-sided canyon is extremely popular with hikers and rock climbers thanks to its robust rock sides with uneven surfaces.
