Nearby spring sites, hikes in the Oulmes Valley and a peak in the municipality offer different starting points for a stay near Oulmes. Which ones you focus on depends on whether water, activity or elevation is your main interest. These different locations provide an initial geographical guide for your planning.

Springs and water

The spring that feeds Aïn Atlas is called “fontaine Sidi Hamou Agamgam” and has been developed. It is located near Oulmes at an altitude of 930 m, on the right bank of the Oued Assif Tazrout. Its name, elevation and position on the riverbank establish the spring’s geographical location.

At Aïn Lalla Haya, the surrounding landscape and bathing in naturally carbonated water at 42 °C are the main attractions. By comparison, the spring that feeds Aïn Atlas can be identified by its name, elevation and location on the right bank of the Oued Assif Tazrout.

The regional offerings in the Oulmes Valley also include a weekly market and thermal baths. They are separate attractions and may appeal to different interests. If you plan to bathe at Aïn Lalla Haya or in a thermal bath, check access in advance; for the market, current market days are what matter.

Peaks and hikes

Jbel Toukr Oulmas lies within the municipality, east of the centre of Oulmes. At 1,250 m, it is the highest peak in the province. These details locate the peak within the municipality and indicate its elevation. It complements the springs with a geographical point of interest that can be described by its location and ranking by height.

Visitors can hike in the Oulmes Valley. During a Club Alpin Français Casablanca weekend in the Oulmes mountains on November 8, 2025, the programme included two hikes of 13 km and 12 km, as well as an optional descent to hot springs. The shorter route was 12 km and the longer one 13 km, a difference of one kilometre. The descent to the hot springs was an additional option. These were two separate hikes, not two sections of a single route. For this weekend, the route lengths and the possible descent can be considered separately.

Choosing your stay

When looking for a holiday rental in Oulmes, you can decide what to focus on for your trip: would you like to hike in the Oulmes Valley, explore the springs or include the peak in the municipality? For a short stay, these activities do not all have to fit into the same day’s itinerary. First choose the experience that matters most to you, then compare individual options according to your own requirements.
