Overview

The welcoming Kingdom of Morocco offers a wonderful diversity of culture, cuisine and landscapes including the mighty High Atlas Mountains. This excellent trekking holiday to Morocco follows a genuine off the beaten track circuit through the heart of the mountains, all the way to the summit of Mount Toubkal. Whilst trekking through the land of the Berbers, you’ll explore picturesque mountain villages, hidden valleys and charming lakes surrounded by breath-taking panoramas. KE’s classic route follows an exciting circuit across the spine of the High Atlas to the remote and beautiful Tizgui Valley. Here you’ll find jaw dropping scenery, magnificent passes, fascinating Berber culture and experience waking up beside the turquoise lake of Ifni. After making our way to the Neltner Refuge, it’s the summit of Toubkal, Morocco’s highest peak that calls. As you stand on the summit you’ll be rewarded with a jaw-dropping panorama stretching from the mighty High Atlas to the magnificent Sahara Desert. If you’re looking for a classic trekking adventure which follows lesser-known trails and takes you on a High Atlas Circuit to the top of Toubkal, then this is the perfect choice.


A Genuine Small Group Experience - The Secret of Our Success on one week Toubkal

We are proud to say this holiday in Morocco is limited to a maximum group size of 12, ensuring you enjoy a genuine small group adventure. We've been taking people trekking and walking for over thirty years so we know the ingredients of a good guide and a successful group holiday. Toubkal is neither particularly high nor technically demanding, but the experience and knowledge of our Moroccan leaders, teamed with a smaller group size, can make a big difference on summit day. Those who are new to trekking holidays will take particular comfort in the presence of our experienced Moroccan guides, who we believe are the best in the business.

Is this holiday for you?

This superb trekking holiday is challenging but the maximum altitude is not very high and we spend only one night above 3000m. The area we trek through is remote, which is one of the highlights and as you’d expect on a mountain journey there are a number of long walking days (8 or 9 hour). For the majority of the time we trek along rocky trails and in summer the temperatures can be high, however this is the best time to climb Toubkal as the trails are generally snow free. Heading to the summit of Toubkal is optional and if you decide to stay at the refuge and wait for the group, it won't take away the enjoyment from the rest of the circuit and holiday. However the ascent of Toubkal presents no technical difficulty and should be within the capabilities of fit and active walkers.

Why KE?

At KE we have years of experience in trekking holidays, especially in Morocco. We know what we are doing.

This Toubkal holiday is unique as you’ll complete a wonderful circuit, and not the regular there and back route taken by many others.

With all meals included you’ve no hidden extras, plus a maximum group size of 12 and our excellent leaders means you're in the best possible hands.
