Welcome to Morocco! On arrival at Marrakech Airport, you will be met by a TM representative and transferred to your hotel.
Day 2 - Marrakech / Toubkal Refuge
Depart by car from Marrakech around 7 am. we drive towards the village of Imlil (1740m). Here we leave our vehicle and, in the company of our mountain guide, begin our trek, heading along the village of Aremd (1900m) and then into the shrine of Sidi Chamarouch. The village sits beside a small waterfall, a jumbled cluster of houses that seem to melt together into an anarchic mass. From here the trail continues to climb steadily, snaking and zigzagging its way up to the snowline and our camp (3206m).
Approximately 7 hours of walking
Day 3 - Toubkal Summit - back to Armed
Early this morning we make our attempt on the summit of Jebel Toubkal, the highest peak in Northern Africa. The walking is relatively straightforward, but the scree and the altitude will make the going quite difficult in parts, however, the views along the way make the journey more than worthwhile. Retracing our steps we then return down the mountain and head back towards Aremd (1900m).
Approximately 9 hours of walking
