Day 1: Marrakech – Aguerssiwal – Ikkis - Aremd (1xL, 1xD)

​

Pick up from your hotel in Marrakech at 9am in the morning and ca 1h drive to Aguerssival village (1,600m) the starting point for the trek. On a narrow but still comfortable path climb towards the pass of Tizi n´Aguersssiaval (2,000m). From the pass the view over the beautiful Imnan Valley opens for the first time. Between the junipers and later small terraced fields descend to the river of Assif n´Imnane and to the small Berber village of Ikkiss (1,800m). Continuing next to the river up to the village of Tinerhourhine. Small snack (fruit, dates, nuts, keks) before the climb to the pass Tizi n´Tamatert (2,280m). From there view to Imnane and Imlil Valley. Picnic lunch in the pass (salad, tajin, fruit, bread, tea). After lunch descend towards Imlil on the shadowed path through a pine forest. From Imlil on a comfortable path ascend to the village of Aremd (1,945m) the last village on the way to Toubkal and the place for overnight. Accommodation at comfortable and cosy mountain guesthouse in double rooms. Bathroom and toilets shared but clean and European. Dinner at the guesthouse.

Walking time: 6-7

​

Day 2: Aremd – Sidi Chamharouch – Refuge Toubkal (1xB, 1xL, 1xD)

​

At 9 am start of the slow ascend through the Mizane Ati Valley up to the pastoral holy place of Sidi Chamharouch (2,350m) that attracts many Moroccan pilgrims. Picnic lunch there or later, according your tempo. After the shrine the trail climbs steadily on the snaking and winding road to the Refuge of Toubkal (3206m). Accommodation in the dormitory with other hikers. If you wish we can reserve for you a private double room but it is quite expensive (would be 70 EUR more for a room without own toilet). Accommodation in Refuge is quite basic – hence be prepared for little bit of cold and not everything is very clean. Dinner in the Refuge (prepared by our ow cook hence good😊 )

Approx. 5-6 hours walking.

​

Day 3: Refuge Toubkal – Jebel Toubkal – Refuge Toubkal – Imlil – Marrakech

(1xB, 1xL)

​

Breakfast served around 5 am and early start of the climb to the summit (4,167 m). The route takes it up the south circuit, crossing the stream above the refuge. The walk is relatively easy, however because of the altitude you will probably walk slower than you are normally used. You should reach the summit approx. after 3,5 h. With the sunrise the views along the way are amazing and once the summit reached,breath-taking views in every direction open to you. After enjoying this special moment you return down to Refuge Toubkal, have a lunch and head back towards Imlil on the same way like the day before. Private car takes you back to Marrkech. Arrival in Marrakech approx. between 6-7pm, depending on your tempo.

Walking time: 8-9 h
