Duration: 2 Days
2 Person Minimum
Although much of the High Atlas is made up of sedimentary rocks, the Toubkal Massif is a volcanic area, eroded into alpine ridges cut by deep, narrow green valleys, terraced fields, and Berber villages perched on crests. Mount Toubkal (4167 m), the highest peak in North Africa, requires no technical climbing skills, and most people in good physical condition should be able to reach the summit, provided they are well-prepared and respect the altitude.
Join us for this 2-day trek alongside our dynamic and professional team (guides, muleteers, cooks…).

After breakfast, transfer by comfortable vehicle toward the Toubkal Massif. You’ll cross part of the Haouz plain and the Moulay Brahim gorges to reach the village of Asni, then follow the road up the beautiful Ait Mizane Valley to the village of Imlil (1740 m). Meet your guide, muleteer, and cook. After loading the mules, you begin your trek with a steady ascent leading to the Chamharouch shrine. Lunch break, then continue your hike in the afternoon to reach the Toubkal Refuge (3207 m). Dinner and overnight at the refuge. Approx. 5 hours of walking.
Early in the morning, begin the climb to Mount Toubkal (4167 m), the highest summit in North Africa. From the top, you’ll enjoy an incredible 360° panoramic view: to the south, the Siroua Massif; to the east, the M’Goun; to the north, the Haouz plain and Marrakech; and to the west, the majestic Ouanoukrim Mountains. Take time to admire the landscape and savor these unforgettable moments before descending to the refuge. Then continue the trek back to the village of Aremd, with lunch en route.
