Toubkal National Park Hike

Your day begins with a visit to the Toubkal National Park Eco-museum in Asni, where you have the chance to learn more about the geology, history, culture, flora and fauna of the High Atlas. From here you have a gradual uphill walk to the village of Anfa for views over the Ait Mizane valley. After a picnic lunch and a visit to a local family, you walk back downhill to the main road to meet your vehicle for the drive back to the hotel. 4hrs walking in total at an easy / moderate grade.

High Atlas Traverse (3 days)

This trek crosses the roof of the High Atlas, from the valley of Imlil to the ski resort of Oukaimden; there are some high passes to cross and remote valleys to explore, without ever reaching the very tops of the mountains. Your trek begins a few miles short of Imlil where you meet your guides, porters and mules, then head off up your first pass, the Aguer Sioual pass. Descending on the other side, you stop for a picnic lunch beside a stream, before following the stream for the afternoon to your campsite in Tigouna at 2,500m. Your second day begins with a climb to the highest point of the trek, the Tacheddirt pass at 3,200m. At the col you’ll enjoy some spectacular views over the mountains before descending through woodlands to Ibassene village for some lunch. The afternoon is spent climbing to the remote village of Agouns, where the locals will greet you with mint tea before you settle into your camp for the night at 2,600m. Your final day also begins with a steep, switch-backing climb to the Ouattar Pass at 3,100m. It’s literally downhill all the way from here, breaking the journey beside a natural spring for lunch before continuing to the ski resort of Oukaimden where you’ll meet up with your vehicle again. Total 16hrs walk over the three days at a demanding level (ideally requiring some mountain experience).

4x4 Berber Trails

Today you will head off on our Berber Trails excursion, in a 4x4 exploring some of the more remote areas of the High Atlas Mountains. Initially you are on the beaten path as you head to the popular Lalla Takerkoust lake, before driving off the tarmac roads to the village of Ouarialt to meet a local family and visit an educational centre supported by our local agents. You then drive ever upwards to the remote Kik Plateau, a place of wide-open vistas, scenic roads, and very few visitors, before descending into the lush valley of Asni and on to the olive groves of Marigha, where you will stop for lunch. There will then be the option to walk down the valley to the salt vats before heading back to your accommodation.

Half-Day Imlil and Armed Hike

This three-hour walking excursion heads out from just above the village of Imlil, one of the most scenic parts of the Atlas Mountains region. You firstly meet your professional mountain guide at the hotel and follow the footpath uphill through small Berber villages and fertile fields covered by various kind of fruit trees including walnut, apples and cherries. From here you continue along a dirt track uphill to Armed village (at an altitude of 2,000m) where you will stop for a glass of mint tea with the locals and learn their way of life. At this point you'll be right in the heart of the spectacular scenery, with views back down to Imlil and down into the valley. If you’re walking in spring or early summer, you may still be able to spot snow on the mountaintops. After your refreshing break you'll continue your walk downhill, through a narrow street in the village to join the dirt track for a gentle stroll along Mizane Valley, enjoying the panoramic view of Mount Toubkal. You carry on downhill to return to Imlil and head back to your hotel.

Go Berber!

'Go Berber!' is a wonderful local living excursion, immersing you in the daily life of an authentic mountain community. The round-trip through lush Ourika Valley and dramatic Atlas landscapes by luxurious SUV will be your only non-Berber experience on this eye-opening, hands-on adventure. Bake bread and prepare tagine in the kitchen of a village family and get to know them better over a pot of traditional mint tea – made by you! The conversation should also start to flow, with a little help from your guide. While lunch is simmering, get your hands stuck into wet clay in a ceramics workshop. Later, try your hand at weaving a colourful kilim with the local women behind their prized ancestral looms, and walk the farm terraces to see the sweated labour that goes into ancient irrigation and subsistence farming methods. You’ll also meet the community’s youngest members at the charity pre-school centre where little Berbers learn Arabic in preparation for big school.
