3-Days High Atlas Mountains Hiking Tour from Marrakech

Experience the beauty and Berber villages of Morocco’s High Atlas Mountains on a 3-day private hike from Marrakech. Drive to the mountain town of Imlil, and spend three days hiking through lush valleys past gushing streams, pine trees, and cherry and walnut groves, and stopping at Berber hamlets to discover their culture. Return transfers from Marrakech, guided moderate-level hikes on each day, two nights' gite accommodation, and many meals included.

Day 1: Marrakech - Imlil - Tinerhourhine (L, D)

After pickup from your Marrakech hotel at about 8:30am, travel by private vehicle south toward the High Atlas Mountains. After approximately 2-hours, arrive in the village of Imlil beneath the Atlas’ highest peak, Jebel Toukbal. Meet your guide and mule team, hire trekking poles (own expense) if required, and after your luggage is loaded, begin your trek.

Follow mule paths through lush valleys, passing gurgling streams and admiring the spectacular High Atlas peaks. Pass the village of Tamatert, and enjoy lunch in the cool Tizi n’ Tamatert pass, at 7,477 feet (2,279 meters) before walking to Ouanesekra-Tamguist and the Berber village of Tinerhourhine. Enjoy dinner and spend tonight in a gite. Approximate walking time: 4 hours. Overnight: Gite in Tinerhourhine

Day 2: Tinerhourhine - Ikkiss - Aït Assa (B, L, D)

After breakfast, walk through the Imnane Valley, passing pine, juniper, and walnut groves, and stopping for photos at Ikkiss, perhaps meeting some villagers to learn about Berber life. Next, trek to Tizi n’Aguersioual, and after lunch at Matate at 6,562 feet (2,000 meters), continue to Aït Aïssa for dinner and overnight at a gite. Approximate walking time: 6-7 hours. Overnight: Gite in Aït Aïssa

Day 3: Ait Assa - Imlil - Marrakech (B, L)
