Trekking In The High Atlas Mountains

Imlil TREK IN THE HIGH ATLAS MOUNTAINS The base for the ascension to Mount Toubkal 4167 meters high , the highest peak in North Africa is the village of Imlil, at 1700 meters high, only one hour and a half drive from Marrakech. there are some great alternative treks available from Imlil and your local English speaking guide will adapt to whatever your level of fitness maybe. The surroundings of Imlil are a true earthly heaven and orchards of cashew nuts, cherries, raspberries, elderberries, apples and figue trees supply the local Berber market in Asni on Saturdays. The local waterfalls, half hour walk from the village, in the shade of the nut- trees, past Kasbah Toubkal, are also a highlight. another lovely valley sidi fares where you will treat yourself to a tasty lunch and incredible views . Our favorite thing to do though is by far lunch inside a Berber home and seeing how the locals live. Best done on second or third day in Marrakech, all year round
