Mt Toubkal, also known as Jebel Toubkal locally, rises 4167m above sea level and offers stunning panoramic views of the High Atlas Mountains. This trek spans three days, allowing you to ascend and descend North Africa’s highest peak, with a glimpse into the life of Berber villagers along the way. Afterward, you can explore Marrakech, a vibrant city. In winter, the area transforms into a walker’s paradise, with uncrowded trails and breathtaking views of the Toubkal Massif.

Accommodation :

In Marrakech, we will spend 2 nights in a Riad/hotel in the Medina. We enjoy one night in a family guest house, with good good-sized room and shared facilities and a large roof terrace with views up to Toubkal. At Basecamp, you will stay in large mixed-sex, dormitory-style rooms with basic facilities, but there is hot running water and showers and a small shop selling soft drinks and snacks.

Where a single supplement is available, paying for a single will only guarantee a room for single use. It does not necessarily mean a twin or double room will be provided for sole occupancy.

Please note that a member of the group may be allocated a single room by default if the make-up of the group means there isn’t anyone for them to share with. Paying the supplement in advance is the only way to guarantee a single room.

Crampons and Ice axes

Crampons and ice axes are provided locally (Camp Magix 10 crampons and Camp Neve axes) These will normally be issued in (or before) Aroumnd.

3 – 4 season walking boots

All crampons must be fitted to an appropriate boot. Fitting a pair of crampons to an insufficiently sturdy or rigid boot can lead to crampons coming loose, and accidents. The crampons required for this trip are C1 crampons (entry-level mountain crampons). A C1 crampon should be fitted to a B1 boot. A B1 boot is a 3 to 4-season walking boot with a rigid or semi-rigid sole, and good (high and stiff) ankle support. The guides will check all participant’s boots before the trek to confirm they are compatible with the crampons to be used.
