Africa's largest ski resort is located in Morocco and is called Oukaimeden. Oukaimeden is located 75 kilometers south of Marrakech in the Atlas mountains close to Jebel Toubkal.
There are a few ski lifts here (you can also get up with the help of donkeys) and the slopes are at a height of around 2,600 to 3,200 meters above sea level.
Oukaimeden offers ski rental and there are a few restaurants and hotels to choose from.
Of course the cultural experience is also exciting and very different from most other ski resorts. The locals are very curious and friendly and you will have many exciting encounters.

Snow in Oukaimeden
Oukaimeden does tend to have a lack of snow. After all, you are in Africa. The steeper slopes are often not possible to ski. However, the area is beautiful and the surroundings are wonderful for hiking or climbing excursions, so if you arrive at times of poor snow coverage you are bound to find something else to engage in.Of course the cultural experience is also exciting and very different from most other ski resorts.
