After the lunch break at Sidi Chamarouch’s small village, the mountain becomes more arid and only a few bleating of goats and sheep guarded by young shepherds accompany your walk. Night at the Toubkal refuge (Neltner refuge, 3210 m).
    Walking time: 5 h 30.

  • Complimentary tea and coffee
  • Meals included: breakfast, lunch, and dinner

Additional Information

Embark on the exciting challenge of scaling North Africa’s tallest mountain in just 2 or 3 days. Our journey begins and concludes in the bustling Moroccan city of Marrakech, with included transport to and from Imlil. Trek alongside a local, English-speaking guide, a native cook and mules to transport our gear. While the trek may be demanding, no climbing is required and anyone physically fit can reach the summit. Do bring your camera to capture the stunning views from the peak. Note that Mount Toubkal, standing at 4167m, is North Africa’s tallest peak and a trekking peak with no climbing involved. Two days require walking in crampons with an ice axe for safety (from November to April). The itinerary is planned specifically for enthusiastic walkers, as the trek up is non-technical, but includes some simple scrambling and snow-covered gradients.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Toubkal - I had a great time doing Toubkal! My guide was a perfect match for me. I was thankful that I chose to book a private guide. I like to hike quickly and having a private guide made this possible. The first day was pretty easy. We started at 10am and took 2 breaks. The food was pretty good. The refuge at the base of Toubkal was nice. But good luck sleeping with 27 other people. The second day we started at 4:30 and made it to the top for sunrise. We finished just before 11am. We did run some of the way down. If you are used to hiking a lot I would rate this at moderate. If aren't used to hiking or the elevation this is a hard hike.

A fantastic trip to the highest point in North Africa. - From the minute we got picked up from the hotel it was an excellent experience. The driver who took us to imlil village was great. All the organisation for the whole trip from start to finish was absolute amazing. How they get all the timing right at each individual stage of the trip is brilliant. All the team are so friendly and Mohamed our guide was a true gentleman and could do enough for us. We have done this trip befor with another operator and we thought that was good but this team is something special. Thanks to Ismail, Hussain and Mohamed for giving us this amazing experience Thanks you guys. Stuart (the goat) and Jake. From England.

Toubkal perfect experience - My friends and I booked a toubkal guide with this company. We have only good things to say about the service we had. The owner was really quick to react to our messages and made sure we were satisfied with everything. We really enjoyed our experience and i would recommend to anyone who wants to do the 2 day ascension of toubkal. They gave us food and all necessary equipment.

I recommend dealing with this guy, his personal characteristics (his niceness) and his knowledge were very valuable - Ismail is a truly nice guy, we've meet in the most random way , but he was very nice to me , helping me with every way possible (even giving me all the information i needed and moreover ,wifi from his phone! All without asking for money!!

Wow, Don't hesitate to do it - It was about three years ago before covid started. We made the decision to go to Morocco as our guide Ismail invited us on Facebook. He really appreciated us and encouraged us to go and visit this beautiful country. we really had good memories, he organized everything for us from airport to airport: Transport in precise time, Good team who accompanied us during our trip. Everything was fine and finally the day of the return, we spent it in a beautiful Riad in Imlil with a great team as well. Many thanks to Ismail, Houssain and the whole team. Sincerely yours
