The Al Haouz province is full of exceptional tourist sites, untamed landscapes, paradisiacal corners to recharge one's batteries and extraordinary potential in terms of natural resources, offering a good alternative to all those in search of coolness and tranquillity during this period of great heat.
In addition to the Ourika and Asni-Imlil valleys, the Setti-Fadma waterfalls, the Toubkal summit, the Aguergour paragliding site, the Oukaïmeden ski resort and the Lalla Takerkouste dam, the rural commune of Larbaâ Tighdouine, located about 64 km from Marrakech and nestled in a mountainous setting and magnificent landscapes, has become a true refuge for Marrakchis wishing to flee the scorching heat of the ochre city.
Located at the bottom of the Zat valley, the commune continues to seduce and attract many families and also foreign tourists in search of moments of coolness, escape, relaxation, sensation and lounging. The commune has acquired its fame thanks to the Sidi El-Wafi natural springs, both sparkling and still water, which number eleven. The said springs are said to have curative and therapeutic virtues, insofar as their waters are reputed to cure many diseases, particularly kidney, eye, skin and stomach pathologies. Each water has a particular taste linked to its source of origin.
Near one of these springs, women cover their faces with clay mud which, in the eyes of regulars, absorbs grease and impurities and makes the skin very soft and the complexion luminous.
Thanks to these natural springs and small waterfalls, water abounds in this magical place for fans of hiking, excursions and family picnics. With the intense heatwave that is suffocating the ochre city, the commune of Larbaâ Tighdouine has now become one of the most popular destinations for Marrakchis. The hinterland of Marrakech is therefore well placed to attract a large number of visitors interested in ecotourism, adventure, nature, mountain sports and paragliding. According to the provincial authorities of Al Haouz, nature and adventure tourism attracts more than 300,000 national and foreign visitors each year.
