Climbing Toubkal

Our Toubkal Morocco tour offers an unforgettable adventure through the stunning landscapes of the High Atlas Mountains, combining trekking, culture, and amazing scenery. This particular Morocco tour begins in Marrakech, where travellers are picked up from the airport and transferred to Imlil, a key gateway for trekking in the region. Upon arrival, local Berber cooks prepare a delicious traditional meal to welcome guests before resting up for the journey ahead.

On the second day, the trek begins with a scenic 6-hour hike from Imlil to the Toukal Refuge (also known as Neltner Refuge), accompanied by mules and experienced muleteers. Although the altitude may add some challenge to the trek, the panoramic views of Morocco’s countryside make it well worth the effort. Throughout the trek, guests enjoy meals prepared by skilled Berber cooks, giving an authentic taste of local hospitality.

Day three is the highlight of the Morocco tour, with an early morning ascent to the summit of Jebel Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa at 4,167 meters. The climb takes between 3 to 5 hours, depending on pace, and rewards trekkers with spectacular vistas that showcase Morocco’s natural beauty. The descent back to Imlil takes longer but is easier, typically lasting around 5 to 6 hours. Upon return, a hearty meal and a restful night offer a perfect end to this challenging but rewarding day.

The final day of the Morocco tour brings travellers back to Marrakech after breakfast, ensuring timely arrival for flights and a chance to reflect on the incredible experience. This tour captures the essence of Morocco’s mountainous terrain, rich culture, and warm hospitality, making it a perfect choice for those seeking adventure and authenticity in one of North Africa’s most scenic regions.
