Per Person3 days toubkal trek from marrakech
The 3-Days Toubkal Trek is an exhilarating and scenic adventure in Morocco’s Atlas Mountains, designed for trekkers who want to explore the area surrounding Toubkal trek (the highest peak in North Africa, at 4,167 meters). Unlike the standard trek to the summit of Toubkal, the round trek takes you on a loop around the mountain, offering diverse views, picturesque Berber villages, and challenging yet rewarding hiking.
Difficulty LevelThe Toubkal Round Trek is considered moderate to challenging due to the altitude (with the highest pass reaching around 3,600 meters), the rugged terrain, and the length of the trek each day. You need to have some previous trekking experience and a good level of fitness to tackle this trek. While it doesn’t involve technical climbing, the terrain can be steep and rocky, especially at higher altitudes.
Prerequisites
Participants should have prior trekking experience and a moderate to high level of fitness. High-altitude conditions can be challenging, so being well-prepared is essential.
Ensure you pack for variable weather, including warm layers for the evenings and waterproof clothing in case of rain. Good hiking boots, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, a headlamp, a water bottle, and a small first aid kit are also recommended.

Itinerary
After a transfer to the little village of Imlil we begin our trek. Heading along the Mizane Valley, we first pass the village of Aremd and then onto the shrine of Sidi Chamarouch. We then continue east and by crossing the flood plains our route takes us along mule tracks and up into the high rocky cliffs above the valley. Crossing the river we eventually come to the pastoral shrine of Sidi Chamarouch, which attracts tourists and pilgrims. From here the trail continues to climb steadily, snaking and zigzagging its way up to the snowline and the Toukbal Refuge (3206m), our stop for the night. Approx. 4 to 5hrs walking.
Early in the morning we make our attempt on the summit of Jebel Toukbal, the highest peak in Northern Africa. Our route takes us up the south cirque, crossing the stream above the refuge. The walking is relatively straightforward, but the scree and the altitude will make the going quite difficult in parts. The views along the way make the journey more than worthwhile. When you reach the the summit you will see that the vistas across the surrounding landscape are quite breathtaking. From here there are unrestricted views in every direction, from the Marrakesh Plain to the High Atlas in the north and as far south as the Anti-Atlas and the Sahara. We will retrace our steps when we return down the mountain and head back to the Toubkal Refuge where we will spend the night.
Today we walk back from the Toubkal Refuge to Imlil. After arrival in Imlil we will transfer back to Marrakech.
