A excellent introduction to the mountains and traditions of Morocco, this particular Atlas trekking tours fuses a trek in the High Atlas Mountains with trips to the medinas and also palaces of Marrakesh. Check out the narrow alleyways of the souqs and admire exquisite structure within the country’s most amazing imperial cities. Outside the bustle of Marrakesh we walk through standard Berber villages, following trails to alpine pastures established beneath the amazing backdrop of the peaks of the High Atlas mountain range. We learn how to value the ease of living in these mountain villages and therefore are awed by scenery that is stunning. An ascent of Jebal Toubkal (4167m), probably the highest mountain in Morocco, is one thing to strive for on the trek of ours. Not being under estimated, reaching the summit is a fantastic accomplishment and a fitting highlight to complete this adventure.
