DAY 1: MARRAKECH -IMLIL - AZIIB TAMSOULT
Pick up from your Hotel or Riad after breakfast to leave Imlil for Azib Tamsoult. As we leave the village of Imlil we pass through walnut and cherry orchids making our way up the Mizane valley before heading west over the Tizi Mzik pass (2489mt) for lunch. The trail then slowly leads it way to Azib Tamsoult (2400m) our camp for the night. 4 hrs walking.
DAY 2: AZIB TAMSOULT –AGULZIM PEAK - REFUGE
Today is a planned acclimatization day. We leave the camp early in the morning and our aim for today is the summit of Aglzim (3500mt). Once on the summit we will have time to enjoy the stunning views over the High Atlas before starting our decent into camp. We will arrive at camp (3206m) in the Mizane Valley at the foot of Mount Toubkal in the late afternoon. 6 hours walking.
DAY 3: TOUBKAL CLIMB - MARRAKECH
Early in the morning we make our attempt on the summit of Jebel Toukbal (4167m), the highest peak in Northern Africa. Our route takes us up the south cirque, crossing the stream above the refuge. The walking is relatively straightforward, but the scree and the altitude will make the going quite difficult in parts. The views along the way make the journey more than worthwhile. When you reach the summit you will see that the vistas across the surrounding landscape are quite breathtaking. From here there are unrestricted views in every direction, from the Marrakesh Plain to the High Atlas Mountains in the north and as far south as the Anti-Atlas and the Sahara. We will retrace our steps when we return down the mountain and head back towards Imlil where we will transfer back to Marrakech. Approx 9 hours walking.
