    Full description
    Challenge yourself to climb the highest peak in North Africa in 2 days. The tour starts and finishes in the vibrant city of Marrakech, and includes transport to and from Imlil. You will trek with a local English-speaking guide, a local cook, and mules to carry your luggage. This is a challenging walk rather than a climb, and anybody in good physical condition can reach the top. Make sure you bring your camera; the views from the summit are spectacular. Mount Toubkal 4167m is the highest peak in North Africa, and is a trekking peak involving no climbing but may involve walking in crampons or holding an ice axe for security (November to April). The itinerary has been designed for keen walkers, as the ascent is non-technical, but does involve some easy scrambling and snow slopes. After the first day spent trekking, you will stay at the refuge where you will spend the night, and enjoy Berber hospitality. After an early breakfast the next day, set off and reach the summit as the sun rises, rewarding you with amazing views. The views from the summit are amazing across the mountains to Marrakech to the north, and the start of the Sahara to the south. During the ascent you will be rewarded with stunning views of the Atlas Mountains, green valleys, and Berber Villages.

    Just back from the 2 days 1 night toubkal trek. It was absolutely amazing, the scenery and the hike is a must do! It was made even more special by our guide and our cook. Zen was so kind, funny and chatty. He was very understanding of both our needs (there was only 2 of us in our group) and he let us choose our pace. He told us all about his culture and his life as well. Our cook Mohammad carried our extra baggage on his mule along with all cooking essentials and food. They chose beautiful spots to stop for lunch and cook tagine and salad fresh. The refuge was comfy and you met other like-minded people there. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone who wants to climb the highest peak in North Africa!

    This was incredible!! Mohamed my local guide lead the two day trek through the valley to the hut high on the mountain where we spent the night. Early the next morning we trekked, seeing the African sunrise, and after a little time we stood atop the highest peak in North Africa. I felt extremely safe with Mohamed and well looked after. He shared his expert local knowledge and made me feel like part of his family. This was an incredible experience and I’d highly recommend it with Mohamed. This climb is no doubt challenging but extremely rewarding and more than achievable with a reasonable level of fitness. All your meals are provided and they are really good I thought. There are tea house along the way where you can buy supplies such as water and snacks. The mountain people are extremely friendly. Remember your passport as I almost forgot mine. The cost of this trip is utterly amazing! It’s all inclusive and you have the peace of mind that you’re looked after. Liam 29, Edinburgh

    It was a great experience; I definitely recommend it. However, do not underestimate the duration of walk and the terrain, it's indeed a long walk. It was impressive to me how people were friendly all the way up and down the mountain. My guide Idriz looked after me very well; he adapted to my needs and ensured this was an unforgettable experience to me.
