• Meet the tour guide at Jamma El-Fena (or any other agreed-upon location) in Marrakech, have breakfast and drive to Imlil village.
• Begin the trek and head along the Ait Mizane Valley. We first pass Aremd village and then onto the shrine of Sidi Chamarouch.
• 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 (in winter) and the Toukbal Refuge (3207m), our stop for the night.

(4 to 5 hours walking; Height difference 1507m between Imlil and Toubkal hut.)

• Wake up early morning, and attempt 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 screen and the altitude will make the going quite difficult. The views along the way make the journey more than worthwhile. When you reach the summit, you will see breathtaking vistas across the surrounding landscape. There are unrestricted views in every direction, from the Marrakesh Plain to the High Atlas, north and south of the Anti-Atlas and the Sahara. We will retrace our steps when we return to the refuge. Have lunch.
• Head back towards Imlil. 

(9 to 10 hours walk; Height difference is 960m between the refuge and Toubkal peak.)
