Zip the Atlas: Half-Day Zipline & Berber Breakfast from Marrakech
Soar across the Tahanaout Valley and follow that rush with a traditional Berber breakfast — a compact half-day that pairs an hour of ziplining with local culture and argan-oil tasting. Perfect for travelers short on time but hungry for both adrenaline and authenticity.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
Cables, platforms, and harness fittings require sturdy footwear — trainers or hiking shoes are best.
Bring sun protection
High-altitude sun is strong; pack sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat for exposed sections.
Travel light
Loose items can tangle with equipment — use a small daypack or leave valuables at the pickup point.
Hydrate before you go
Short drives and altitude change combine with exertion on the line; drink water beforehand.
