Ahansal River. The river / Oued Ahansal comes from Taghia and the M’Goun massif.
Its white waters, they are a marvellous scenery, which takes us through deep and hidden gorges, to a world of rock and water, in a vertiginous river descent of more than 50 km.

Melloul River. has its source in Ilmichil and during the first two days we will be paddling through the red canyon of Melloul. It is more than 100 kms of turbulent waters through canyons, valleys and Berber villages, until its confluence with the river Ahanesal in “The Cathedral”.

Ozoud Waterfalls. A spectacular descent of waterfalls in kayak, from 2 and 3 meters up to 9 meters high. Special permission is required for their descent, so if we obtain it, we can do, otherwise we are not allowed.

Oum Er Rbia River. It means “Mother of the spring” and it is the second longest river of Morocco. The river is being fed by its sources of fresh and salt water, where we start its descent surrounded by terraces and tea shops.

Sebou River. This river is located in the vicinity of Fez, near the village of Sefrou. Intense rapids for a rather demanding river.

Ourika River. Close to Marrakech we will find this river that is characterized by its continuity, without having to have any designated rapid. It is a valley of great beauty where the morocco tourists like to spend their holidays.
