5-Day High Atlas Trek
A guided village-to-village trek through the High Atlas foothills around the Toubkal massif, staying in Berber mountain gîtes along the way.
5-day High Atlas trek from Imlil
This guided trek circles the Toubkal massif village by village rather than pushing for the summit: from the trailhead at Imlil, the route crosses mountain passes into the quieter Azzaden Valley and the village of Tacheddirt, staying in Berber mountain gîtes and homestays each night. A licensed mountain guide and mule support for luggage are included throughout, along with private transport to and from Marrakech.
