Description
Begin your adventure in Marrakech with a comfortable transfer to Imlil village, the gateway to the High Atlas Mountains. Upon arrival, be welcomed by your mountain team and enjoy your first traditional Moroccan dinner prepared by local Berber cooks.
Over the next days, progressively ascend through stunning mountain landscapes toward the Toubkal Refuge (Neltner Refuge) before making your summit attempt to Jebel Toubkal (4167m).
Unlike shorter treks, this 4-day itinerary allows proper acclimatization, making the climb safer, more enjoyable, and significantly more rewarding.
After reaching the summit and enjoying panoramic views across the Atlas range, descend back through the valleys to Imlil before returning to Marrakech.
