We start our trek along the Mizane Valley. This road passes throught the Berber village of Aremd and follows on to the shrine of Sidi Chamarouch. Crossing over mud plains the route ascends along mule tracks and into the high rocky cliffs of the Atlas Mountains. Crossing the river, the trek takes us to the shrine and then climbs steadily to the base of Mount Toubkal and the Toubkal refuge. Please be aware that some mountain guides choose to use an alternative resting point. There are several refuges offering different levels of comfort and of course, price.
Day 1 (4-5 hours of walking)
Located in the Toubkal National Park, in the High Atlas Mountains Mount Toubkal stands 4,167 metres (13,671ft) high. It is the highest peak in Morocco, nevertheless this is a moderate trek suitable for all walkers of average fitness or above.
During the winter months, (October to May), the ascent may be icy so good equipment may be required for the trek, such as crampons and ice picks. Naturally at this time the trek may be a little more difficult than in the summer.
Day 2 (altitude climbing)
We attempt to climb to the summit of Toubkal crossing the stream above the refuge. The trek can be quite challenging in places owing to the altitude, however the views on this section are spectacularly rewarding.
Upon reaching the summit Toubkal offer spectacular panoramic views, sometimes as far as the Sahara but always of the Marrakech plains and surrounding slopes and peaks of the High Atlas.
After admiring the view and resting for some time at the top of the mountain we star tour descent, continuing the trek all the way down to Imlil.
Mounting trekking is a truely amazing experience in Morocco.
