Marrakech & Toubkal Summit Trek: What to Expect
Morocco is famous for its rich culture, welcoming people, and incredible food. But did you know it’s home to numerous 4000m mountains too? The Atlas Mountain range extends across northwestern Africa for over 2,500km, separating the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean coastline from the Sahara Desert. This mountainous terrain is scattered with huge canyons, ravines, and Berber villages. The highest peak here is Toubkal, situated 80km south of Marrakech. This multi-day Jebel Toubkal hike is a unique experience mixing new mountain scenery, local cultures, and tasty food.
The trip starts and ends in Marrakech, with its well-served international airport. After the tour, you'll stay one night in the old town (medina), a densely packed, high-walled medieval city dating back to the Berber Empire. A maze of small alleyways burrows through this part of the city, leading you to delicious street food stands, bustling souks (marketplaces), and local services such as hammam massages.

Myself and my partner were so excited for the Toubkal trek, and to say our expectations were exceeded would be an understatement! Our guide Mohamed went above and beyond for everything and made us feel very welcome and comfortable, and that goes for all who we met in the National Park, which is breathtakingly beautiful. I wholeheartedly recommend this to all who are interested.
