What people love about Hiking & Trekking Tours from Marrakesh
- 3-Day Atlas Mountain Trek: Valleys, Villages & Berber Trails”
We had an amazing time in the Atlas Mounts, we were blessed with good weather which made for stunning views of the mountains. Omar our guide was helpful and very informative and shared a wealth of knowledge about the local area. We were group of 8 ladies the eldest being 75 and all the walks were manageable for all of us with assistance from Omar for one of our group to ensure she made it to the top of one of our steepest climbs. We had lovely fresh food prepared for our lunches in the mountains and also back at our accommodation in the evening. Overall it was a thoroughly enjoyable 3 day trip which I would highly recommend.

Many trips include a stay at the Toubkal Refuge Les Mouflons, sitting at 10,518 feet (3,206 meters). As one TourRadar traveler said: "The vistas were to die for, passing through traditional Berber mountain villages with rushing mountain streams surrounded by lush walnut groves."

Here's what a TourRadar traveler said: "The gite is basic but clean and atmospheric. You will be sharing a room with other trekkers and bedding is similar to large bunk bed platforms."

Take time to wander through Djemaa el-Fna square, get lost in the old medina, browse the traditional souks, and visit the peaceful Majorelle Gardens.
