Beschrijving van de reis

The Atlas Mountains are just a short drive from Marrakech, but a whole world away. Dramatic Mountain scenery, picturesque valleys and traditional remote villages make for superb treks, from pleasurable routes passing through the valleys and villages to challenging climbs on the peaks and high passes around Toubkal. All of our treks are private and include professional transfers to and from Marrakech in modern safe vehicles, fully qualified Moroccan Mountain Guides, private cooks who prepare delicious full meals on the trail and mules to carry your kit. Trekking to Toubkal Summit 4,167 m Overview: This is the ultimate High Atlas trek, a 8 day circular trek in a broad circular route around Mount Toubkal. With a number of spectacular passes, stunning campsites and of course the summit of Toubkal to contend with, this isn’t a trek for the light hearted. The rewards are immense though, as you strike out into the wilderness from the relatively populated valleys around Imlil.

There are at least fifteen peaks above 3,800m in a concentrated area around Mount Toubkal, which itself is the highest peak in Northern Africa at 4,167m. The area is perfect for trekking with an expansive network of mule trails and traditional Berber Villages providing hospitality in simple village gites. This 8 day / 7 night circular trek around Mount Toubkal includes the summit of Toubkal, but the real highlight is in getting away from the crowds into areas of mountain wilderness. Lake Ifni, a deep blue water lake at an altitude of 2,312m is the only lake in the mountains. Passes at Tizi Likemt (3555m), Tizi n’Ououraine (3,120m) and Tizi n'Ouanoums (3,664m) afford incredible views of the Toubkal massif and Ifni Dome. Stunning campsites on the shore of Lake Ifni and at the riverside in Tacheddirt provide peaceful resting spots whilst stays in Gites in traditional Berber Villages give you an insight into the Berber culture
