In and around the foothills of Jebel Toubkal, North Africa’s highest peak at 4167m, are numerous Berber villages that have remained largely unaffected by the changes that have taken place in Morocco’s lowland country and cities in the past 30 to 40 years. With their traditional architecture intact, these villages cling to the side of mountains, seemingly carved into the rock in layers of terraces that appear to defy gravity. This unchanging and glorious panorama of deep gorges and fertile valleys provides the backdrop for your trek to the summit where views can some days stretch as far as the Atlantic Ocean and the Sahara Desert. Although this is a short trek it doesn’t make it any less challenging - you will be trekking up the highest mountain in North Africa - no mean feat.
