What people love about Hiking & Trekking Tours from Marrakesh
- Climb Mt Toubkal
Very hard but rewarding, meet some amazing people, Mohammad our guide was brilliant, highly recommend
- Combined Trip 6 days
This was an adventurous 6 day trip: 3 days spent trekking and climbing Toubkal Mountain and the remaining 3 days seeing diverse landscapes including picturesque Saraha desert, rocky desert, mountainous views, local villages, mid-sized cities, and historic villages and kasbahs. It was fairly rugged, so a sense of adventure is a must. Our guide through the Atlas Mountains (Omar Gallouti) was the perfect man for the job. Our cook (Abdul Latif) made meals that were terrific, especially considering he was using a mobile kitchen for most meals! For our trip through the rest of the trip, Abdul was a very good tour guide. The Sahara experience was as dazzling and picturesque as possible. Camping under the desert sky was an unforgettable experience. This was a great way to see a good portion of the country and a great value.
Our experience was absolutely outstanding and we would 100% recommend this trek to anyone who enjoys hiking and who would relish the opportunity for a challenge! The guides were attentive, kind and encouraging, they knew Toubkal like the back of their hand and made sure everyone in the group made it to the summit to see the stunning views. If you’re taking a trip to Morocco this should definitely be on your to do list!

Summer temperatures in the mountains (June through August) range from 77-86°F (25-30°C). If you prefer milder weather, come in spring or fall when temps stay between 68-77°F (20-25°C). One of our TourRadar travelers shared: "The weather albeit a little warm at 44°C was kind, and the views were absolutely fabulous across the Atlas Mountains."
Which landmarks will I see during hiking tours from Marrakesh?
Your journey will take you through the High Atlas Mountains and up Mount Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa at 13,671 feet (4,167 meters). You'll walk through small Berber villages like Imlil and Aremd, explore the green Mizane Valley, and visit the shrine of Sidi Chamarouch. 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."

You'll experience different types of places to stay throughout your trip. In Marrakesh, you'll stay in hotels like Hotel Gomassine. When you're in the mountains, you'll sleep in traditional mountain gites in villages like Aroumd, and basic mountain shelters like Les Muflons Refuge at Toubkal Base Camp. 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."
What should I explore in Marrakesh before or after my trek?
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.
