Ouzoud Falls (Amazigh: ⵉⵎⵓⵣⵣⴰⵔ ⵏ ⵡⵓⵥⵓⴷ Imuzzar n wuẓuḍ, French: Cascades d'Ouzoud) is the collective name for several waterfalls in the province of Azilal in Morocco. The waterfalls empty into the El-Abid River's (Arabic for "Slaves' River") gorge. A popular tourism destination, they are located 36 kilometres (22 mi) from the town of Azilal and 150 kilometres (93 mi) from Marrakesh. 'Ouzoud' means "the act of grinding grain" in Berber.
