Experience highlights

  • Two-wheel-drive off-road electric scooters — they climb for you, with no pedalling
  • Scenic Ourika trails, Berber villages and High Atlas panoramas
  • Tea break with a local family part-way round
  • Accessible to all levels, with the route adapted to the group
  • Morning or afternoon departure, approximately three hours of riding

Full description

An off-road e-scooter is the easiest way to cover real mountain tracks without either the effort of a mountain bike or the noise of a quad. The machines carry two 750-watt motors driving both wheels, so they climb steep ground under their own power while staying stable and quiet enough to talk over at a stop.

The route leaves the operator's base in the Ourika valley, roughly 40 minutes from Marrakech, and follows scenic trails past traditional villages and open views across the High Atlas. Your guide sets the route and the pace around the group, which is why the half day works for mixed-ability parties as well as confident riders.

Part-way through you stop for tea with a local family. It is short, it is genuine, and it is the part most people talk about afterwards — the valley at walking pace instead of through a car window.

Departures are at 09:00 or 14:00 and the riding lasts approximately three hours. Groups run from 2 riders up to a maximum of 8.

This experience is operated by our authorised partner Ride Ourika, who own and maintain the vehicles and provide the guides. Toubkal Views handles your booking and stays with you from enquiry to the day itself.

  2. Approximately 3 hours

    Guided ride through the valley

    You follow scenic trails through the Ourika valley, past traditional villages and open views towards the High Atlas. Routes are chosen by the guide on the day around the group's level, the weather and the terrain.
