Marrakech to Imlil

Atlas Imlil Trek - With an early morning departure from marrakech for a pleasant drive south, winding our way up through the moulay brahim gorge and upper valleys to arrive at the higher foothills of the western high atlas mountains. Our trailhead of imi oughlad(1450m) with the jbel toubkal, at 4167m the highest peak in north africa, aglzim 3650m and aksoual 38847m ,looming before us.

Here, we alight from our vehicle and meet up with berber muleteer crew, always a fun part of our treks.

We set off up in a north-westerly direction for a 2hour acclimatisation hike up switchback mule tracks, passing by cornfields, woods of pine and juniper, to the tiz n’tachete (2000m), where we shall stop to look back down on the Imlil and Ait oussaden valleys before carrying on for another half hour to Imi n’ifri and our field picnic.

Then a slow hike for about 2 and half hours south-west down along a dirt track to assif n’ ait oussaden and the red clay

terraced village of Tiziane(1750 m)for our accommodation in gite d’etape or bivouac.
