I will take you to the summit of Mount Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa, on this two-day journey. Located in southwestern Morocco, Toubkal is the highest summit of the Atlas mountains as well.
It is an easy hike designed for keen walkers as the ascent doesn’t involve climbing. But, it does include some easy scrambling and ascending snow slopes. And you’ll also meet and learn about the natives of Morocco as you traverse the mountain villages on the way.
The tour begins and ends in the vibrant city of Marrakesh. From here, we’ll head towards the mountain town of Imlil, the starting point of our trek.
The first day is spent hiking towards the Neltner Refuge. You’ll witness breathtaking vistas along the way. The second day, we’ll attempt the summit of Jebel Toukbal, the highest peak in North Africa.
Don’t forget to bring along your camera as the views from the summit are spectacular! You’ll see unobstructed views of the Marrakesh Plain and the High Atlas in the north and the sight goes as far as the Anti-Atlas and the Sahara in the south.
And you don’t need any previous climbing experience to venture on this incredible trip. You’ll be fine as long as you are fit.
So, what are you waiting for? Get in touch now to have an unforgettable experience of hiking to the summit of the highest mountain in North Africa. I will be waiting for your message.

Early morning, we’ll attempt the summit of Jebel Toukbal, the highest peak in Northern Africa. The trail leads up the south cirque, crossing the stream above the refuge. It is a straight walk but the scree and the altitude will add to the adventure.
The summit offers breathtaking vistas of the surrounding landscape including the Marrakesh Plain and the High Atlas in the north and the Anti-Atlas and the Sahara in the south. You will reflect on this incredible journey as you head back towards Imlil. We’ll then transfer you back to Marrakech.
