Getting there

Car

Start your journey in Moulouya. Head southwest on the N13 highway. The Ziz Gorges are approximately 30 kilometers from Moulouya, so keep an eye out for signs. The drive offers stunning views and should take around 30–40 minutes. Make sure to have a map or GPS as the area can be remote. After passing through a few small towns, you'll arrive at a viewpoint where you can park your car and enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the Ziz Gorges.

Public Transportation

From Moulouya, take a local bus heading towards Errachidia. Buses leave frequently from the main station. The fare is usually around 30 MAD (Moroccan Dirhams). Inquire with the bus driver about stopping at Ziz Gorges, as some services may not drop you directly at the site. Once you arrive at the closest bus stop, you may need to walk approximately 2 kilometers to reach the gorges. Be prepared for a scenic walk, and consider hiring a local taxi if you prefer not to walk.

Taxi

If you prefer a direct route, consider hiring a taxi. You can negotiate a fare with a local taxi driver in Moulouya. The cost for a round trip to Ziz Gorges should be around 300-400 MAD, depending on your negotiation skills and the exact distance. Ensure you agree on the return time with the driver to avoid being stranded. Taxis can provide a more comfortable and quicker option compared to public transport.
