Imlil and Toubkal Tours
The High Atlas village where the trails to Mount Toubkal begin, about 90 minutes from Marrakech, with guided treks of two to five days.
Imlil, at 1,740 m, is the High Atlas village where the trails to Mount Toubkal begin. It is about an hour and a half by car from Marrakech, so it suits a short trek as well as a long one. Toubkal, at 4,167 m, is the highest peak in North Africa.
Choosing a trek
- 3 days: the most direct. Up the Mizane Valley to the Toubkal Refuge (3,207 m) on day 1, the summit on day 2, back on day 3. See the 3 day trek.
- 4 days: you first cross the Tizi Mzik pass and sleep in a gite in the Azzaden Valley, so you gain height more slowly. See the 4 day trek.
- 5 days: a circuit through the Azzaden Valley, over the Tazaghart plateau and past Lake Ifni to the refuge and the summit. See the 5 day trek.
Each starts and ends in Marrakech. Unsure which fits your time and fitness? Ask us on the contact page, see Mount Toubkal trekking, or read about the wider Atlas range.
