Day 1: Marrakech - Imi Oughlad - Tizi n’Tachte - Tiziane

Marrakech - Start your day with an early morning departure from Marrakech, embarking on a pleasant drive towards the southern region.

Moulay Brahim - As we wind our way up through the scenic Moulay Brahim Gorge and upper valleys, the majestic peaks of the Western High Atlas Mountains come into view.

Imlil - Our trailhead begins at Imi Oughlad (1450m), where we meet our experienced Berber muleteer crew.

We set off on a northwest direction, ascending along switchback mule tracks for approximately 2 hours, passing through cornfields, pine forests, and juniper trees. The trail leads us to the Tizi n’Tachete pass (2000m), offering panoramic views of the Imlikl and Ait Oussaden valleys. After a short break, we continue our hike for another half hour to reach Imi n’Ifri, where we enjoy a field picnic surrounded by natural beauty.

High Atlas Mountains - We embark on a leisurely 2.5-hour hike southwest, following a dirt track that takes us along the Assif n’Ait Oussaden river to the terraced village of Tiziane (1750m). Here, we settle into our comfortable accommodations in a bivouac or gite, ready to rest and rejuvenate for the next day’s adventure.
