Overview
We are the only company in the world to include both an expedition leader and doctor on our Mount Toubkal Circuit Trek (4,167m) expedition while keeping group sizes sustainably small. Established in 2007, we offer high altitude trekking and mountaineering in some of the most breath-taking locations around the world.
Trekking the Mount Toubkal Circuit
Embark on an exhilarating eight-day journey through the rugged beauty of Morocco’s High Atlas Mountains, crafted for trekkers with a solid level of fitness and a hunger for adventure.
Over six immersive days on foot, we traverse dramatic high passes and wind through remote valleys dotted with timeless Berber villages. This circular route takes you far from the beaten track into wild, untouched landscapes, culminating in the summit of Mount Toubkal (4,167m), the highest peak in North Africa. While impressive in stature, Toubkal is a non-technical trekking peak, making it accessible to those with no previous mountaineering experience. Just determination and a love for the mountains needed!
Expect jaw-dropping panoramas at every turn; craggy peaks, terraced hillsides, and sweeping alpine valleys. Walk among orchards of fig, apple, walnut, and cherry, where friendly locals offer warm smiles and insights into the rich Berber culture that thrives in these highlands.
The adventure, however, doesn’t end in the mountains. We’ll also spend time soaking up the vibrant energy of Marrakech, offering a sensory feast of spice-laden souks, centuries-old palaces, and lively street scenes that leave a lasting impression.
This is more than just a trek. It’s a journey through wild landscapes, ancient traditions, and the soul of Morocco.
