Itinerary
Day 1: Marrakech/Imlil
Arrival Day. Please arrive at the meeting point no later than 2:30PM before your departure to Imlil.
Enjoy a brief welcome meeting with the group before transferring by bus to Imlil, our base for the trek and a major trekking hub in the High Atlas. Following a one-hour hike to your accommodation, the team cooks will prepare a delicious meal for dinner.
Day 2: Trek from Imlil to Toubkal Refuge
Head into the craggy peaks and valleys of Toubkal massif today on foot. The trek will take around five to six hours and the altitude will make it feel a little bit hard, but the trip up will be worth it for the captivating views of the Moroccan countryside.
You'll be able to see the small villages clinging to the surrounding hills and the valley of the Oued Rhirhaia seeming to fold out forever towards the horizon. You'll begin the trek at 1740m and climb to the camp at 3206m. Food tonight will be provided by Berber cooks before we set up our tents and camp at the base of Toubkal with beautiful views of the valley.
Day 3: Summit of Mount Toubkal - Imlil
The group will make the attempt to summit Mount Toubkal starting early this morning after a hearty breakfast. The peak sits at 4167m and will take between three and five hours to complete. As challenging as the climb will be you will be rewarded with some of the most breathtaking scenery in all of Morocco displayed below you. This is the highest peak in Northern Africa, you'll be able to see the Marrakech Plain all the way to the High Atlas in the north and the Sahara in the south. After the climb, descend all the way back down to Imlil for the night.
Travel back to the town of Imlil for a total hike of 19km. While it will be easier to hike down the whole hike will take between 11 and 12 hours making for a very long day. When you arrive to Imlil enjoy free time to grab a delicious meal before getting some well deserved rest.

G Adventures provides a trekker/traveler style of travel, as opposed to a slow, pampered tourist style seen with other tours.
