Itinerary
Day 1: Toubkal Refuge (3200m)
This morning we will transfer from Marrakech to the High Atlas mountains. Trekking through the rugged terrain, surrounded by beautiful mountain vistas, we journey to the Toubkal refuge. This bustling refuge is our resting point for the evening, before the great hike up to Toubkal Summit begins in the morning. Relax over dinner at the refuge, and meet like-minded fellow trekkers!
Day 2: Toubkal Summit! (4167m)
Toubkal is the highest mountain in North Africa and it's an early start, so that we reach the summit before the fierce midday sun. Although the route is straight forward, Toubkal has huge scree slopes, which makes this hike more challenging. After a few hours trekking, we will reach the great summit. Stopping for lunch and a well deserved rest at the summit, you will be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views over the High Atlas. Finally, we will descend the mountain and return to the refuge to spend the night.
Day 3: The Descent
This morning we begin our final leg of our trek. We make the steep descent down rocky paths, through almond groves and across flood plains. We pass the tiny settlement of Sidi Chamharouche, with its Muslim shrine and the village of Aroumd. After lunch it's time to bid farewell to our trekking team and head back to Marrakech. We'll be back in time for dinner and some well deserved rest and relaxation.
