6-Day Toubkal Trek
6 Days • High Atlas Mountains • Summit Adventure

6-Day Mount Toubkal Trek

Experience an unforgettable 6-day trekking adventure to the summit of Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa. This immersive journey takes you deep into the High Atlas Mountains, passing through traditional Berber villages, scenic valleys, and dramatic mountain passes. With the support of experienced local guides and mule teams, you will gradually acclimatize before reaching the 4,167-meter summit. Enjoy authentic mountain hospitality, breathtaking panoramas, and a true sense of achievement on this classic Morocco trekking experience.

Day 01 – Marrakech - Imlil - Tacheddirt :
We leave Marrakech after breakfast and drive to Imlil via Asni. Imlil is the principal trailhead for walkers, and a busy market town. There is a constant movement of people coming down from the mountains, and an equal supply of activity from those about to embark on their adventure. We meet our mule team and once all our gear is loaded we begin walking along the valley towards Tacheddirt, some 8kms beyond Imlil. Soon the trail begins to rise as we climb up to the pass at Tizi n'Tamatert (2,279m). We then descend to the pretty village of Ouaneskra and continue, for a further half-hour or so, to Tacheddirt (2,300m), where we generally camp near the river. Meals included: 1 breakfast, 1 lunch, 1 dinner. 5/6hours total
Day 02 – Tacheddirt - Azib Likemt :
Crossing the valley we begin a long, slow ascent to the pass at Tizi Likemt (3,555m). The going is quite tough as there is a considerable amount of loose scree on the ground. At the top we enjoy our first fine view of the Toubkal massif before a long downhill descent to the village of Azib Likemt, where we camp for the night. 6/7hours total
Day 03 – Azib Likemt - Tizi n'Ourai - Amsouzert :
This long, but relatively easy, day takes us through a variety of contrasting landscapes. From Tizi n’Ououraine (3,120m) we enjoy further views of the Toubkal massif, including the summit, the east face and the Ifni Dome (3,876m). The trail leads on towards Amsouzert, one of the most striking villages in the region, where we spend the night – dormitory-style - in a simple village Gite. 7hours total
Day 04 – Amsouzert - Ifni Lake :
West of Amsouzert are several small villages, which we explore as we make our way towards Ifni Lake, the only lake in the massif. It is a memorable sight, surrounded by rocky mountains and giant heaps of rubble, and is unusually deep. We expect to arrive by lunchtime and spend the afternoon relaxing at the shore. We camp tonight in this area. 4 to 5hours total
Day 05 – Ifni Lake - Nelter Hut :
By now we should be both fit and acclimatised, and ready to tackle the hardest day of the trek. We make our way along a steep path that leads up a seemingly endless scree slope. At length we reach the pass at Tizi n'Ouanoums (3,664m), a narrow ledge between two shafts of rock. From here it is a long zigzag descent to Nelter Hut, a mountain refuge where we spend the night (or alternatively camp outside). 6 to 7hours total
Day 06 – Mt. Toubkal Summit - Imlil :
We leave before dawn, following a well-worn route to the summit. If conditions are good it should take no more than 2-3 hours to reach the summit, where we enjoy expansive views of the entire Atlas range and the Marrakech plains beyond. Returning to base, we then descend fairly rapidly to the villages of Sidi Chamharouch and Aremd, before following the Mizane River, along a well-forested trail, to the trailhead at Imlil. If you are staying in Marrakech, you will be taken there by car at the end of the day. 9 to 10hours total
