Highlights
At 4,167m, Mount Toubkal is the highest mountain in North Africa. The hike to the summit is challenging, but it requires no mountaineering experience and the view from its summit makes the hard work worthwhile. Day 1: Marrakech - Imlil - Toubkal Refuge: After a transfer to the village of Imlil we begin our trek. Heading along the Maizane Valley, we first pass the village of Armed and then onto the shrine of Sidi Chamharouch. We then continue our journey by crossing the floodplains. Day 2: Toubkal Refuge - Toubkal Summit - Imlil - Marrakech: Jebel Toubkal, the highest peak in Northern Africa. Our road takes us to the south circus, crossing the stream above the refuge. The walking is relatively straightforward, but the screwy and the altitude will be quite difficult.

About Marrakech
At the foot of the Atlas Mountains, red-walled Marrakech is famed for its maze-like medina, lively main square and tranquil riads and gardens.
Jemaa el-Fnaa, the great square at the centre of the medina, changes character through the day, from juice sellers and snake charmers in the morning to smoke-wreathed food stalls and musicians after dark. The minaret of the Koutoubia Mosque rises nearby as the city's landmark, and the souks spread north in a warren of lanes selling leather, lanterns, carpets and spices.
Top-ranked sights in Marrakech: Atlas Mountains, Tizi-n'Tichka Pass, Jemaa el-Fna (Djemaa el-Fna).
