2-Day Toubkal Trek from Marrakech with Summit Attempt

• Meet your tour guide upon arrival and get picked up from your hotel in Marrakech.
• After a transfer to the tiny village of Imlil, start your trek with your Morocco trekking guide.
• Head along the Mizane Valley, first passing the village of Aremd and then continuing to the shrine of Sidi Chamarouch.
• Continue east, crossing the flood plains as your route follows mule tracks and climbs into the high rocky cliffs above the valley. After crossing the river, you eventually reach the pastoral shrine of Sidi Chamarouch, which attracts tourists and pilgrims.
• The trail continues to climb steadily, snaking and zigzagging its way up to the snowline and the refuge (3206 m), where you will spend the night.

About 5 to 6 hours walking.

B/L/D

• Early in the morning, make your attempt at the summit of Jebel Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa. Your route takes you 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 summit, you will see that the vistas across the landscape are quite breathtaking. From here, there are unrestricted views in every direction, from the Marrakesh Plains to the High Atlas in the north and as far south as the Anti-Atlas and the Sahara.
• Retrace your steps as you descend the mountain and head back towards Imlil.
• Transfer back to Marrakech.

About 9 to 10 hours walking.
