All of our tours travel to remote, off the beaten track areas, and to traditional Berber villages populated by friendly local people living a life that’s changed little over hundreds of years. If you want to trek in Morocco during the summer, head for the High Atlas to climb either Toubkal (4167m) North Africa’s highest peak, or Jebel Mgoun (4071m) North Africa’s second, or both. In the winter we head further south to walk in the Anti-Atlas or Jebel Saghro ranges. This is a popular option for those new to trekking or looking for a gentle one week holiday which combines the best of rural Morocco and the vibrant city of Marrakech. | Please check <snip> [Edited: 08:25 - Jo Trouble - url removed.

I agree that the village people are warm and accommodating. AS soon as I finish visiting Fez attractions, I will ask about how this mountain trekking works so I can finally experience being on the Atlas mountains instead of just viewing it from afar. =) | Number of Users: 2 | Number of Posts: 2 | ||||||||||
