Toubkal Trek 6 Days – Climb Mount Toubkal Morocco

After breakfast, leave Marrakech behind and drive through scenic valleys to Imlil, a picturesque mountain village located at 1,750 m. This is the starting point of your adventure. Meet your guide, muleteers, and the support team before settling into a Berber guesthouse in Aït Souka. In the afternoon, enjoy a short acclimatization hike to the Tizi n’Tamatert pass (2,272 m). From the top, take in magnificent views over the Imlil and Imnan valleys. This warm-up walk helps prepare your body for the altitude. Return to the gîte for a hearty homemade dinner and overnight stay.

Today the trek gradually climbs towards the Toubkal refuge. The path winds past terraced fields and walnut groves before reaching the village of Sidi Chamharouch, a small pilgrimage site known for its white rock shrine dedicated to a local marabout. Here, you pause for a well-deserved lunch. Afterward, the trail continues upward through rocky landscapes, with the snow-capped High Atlas peaks rising above you. By late afternoon, you arrive at the Refuge du Toubkal (3,210 m), where you spend the night. The evening is spent sharing a warm meal and stories with fellow trekkers, resting before the big ascent.

This is the highlight of your Toubkal trek 6 days. You rise before dawn and begin the climb under a starry sky. The trail ascends steeply across scree slopes and rocky ridges. As the sun rises, golden light floods the mountains, creating breathtaking views. After about 3 to 4 hours, you reach the summit of Mount Toubkal (4,167 m), the highest point in North Africa. From here, the panorama stretches across the High Atlas to the Sahara Desert in the south and the plains of Haouz to the north. After enjoying the view and taking photos, you descend carefully back to the refuge. The afternoon is free for rest and relaxation. Dinner and overnight at the refuge.

After breakfast, begin your descent to Imlil along the same scenic trail. The walk is easier and gives you time to appreciate the beauty of the valleys and villages once again. Stop for a picnic lunch en route, before arriving in Imlil in the afternoon. Tonight, you stay in a cozy Berber gîte in Aït Souka. This is a perfect opportunity to enjoy Berber hospitality, share mint tea with locals, and celebrate your successful summit.

On the last day, enjoy a relaxed breakfast in the mountains before driving back to Marrakech (about 2.5 hours). Depending on your flight schedule, you can explore the city’s palaces, gardens, and souks before departure. Your Toubkal trek 6 days ends with unforgettable memories of Morocco’s highest peak.
