Into the Atlas

Leaving colourful Marrakech you drive to the mountains and, where the road ends, continue on foot. You’ll feel like you have entered another world. The adventure really begins as you trek through the remote High Atlas. Supported by mules and muleteers, you will travel through small Berber villages, across valleys and over mountain passes - claiming your peaks enroute.

Three Peaks

For those with a head for heights this trip will put you in your mountain peak, element. Your first peak challenge is Jebel Adrar n'Dern at 4001m, an exposed route can make this your most difficult ascent. Then from Toubkal Base Camp you have two possible ascents; firstly to Jebel Toubkal (4167m). You will be exhilarated by your sense of achievement as you stand on top of the highest peak in North Africa! If that's not enough excitement for you, also claim your third peak of Jebel Ouanakrim (4088m) the following day.

Marrakech

No trip to Morocco is complete without some time to explore the magical city of Marrakech. Here you will discover busy souks, ornate palaces and serene mosques. Explore the alleyways, you will no doubt loose yourself many times in the souk, and bargain for some souvenirs on your way. At night time the square called Djema El Fna comes alive with street sellers cooking local delicacies; while performers from snake charmers, to jugglers and more, all vie to entertain you!
