| Day 1 - Meet in Marrakech early morning, transfer to the small Berber village of Imlil (about 1.5 hours drive south and 1740m altitude) which is the end of the road. Mid morning coffee before beginning our trek up to the Mouflon (Toubkal) refuge, around 3165m. This will take around 6 hours including a lunch stop at the shrine of Sidi Chamarouch where the snow-line generally starts. After arriving at the hut, get settled in and keep warm! Enjoy some great views as the sun sets... | | Day 2 - The 2nd & 3rd highest peaks (Ouanoukrim twins) in the High Atlas lie at the head of the Mizane valley and provide a great day out with excellent views of Toubkal. Today we will aim for these summits arriving back to the refuge in time for lunch. Whilst we recommend this day as a good way to acclimatise as the peaks are at just over 4000m's, you can also opt to sit in the sun for the day if you are tired from yesterday's efforts in reaching in hut. | | Day 3 - An early start for the summit of Toubkal. Generally we leave the refuge around 07.00 or possibly earlier depending on time of year, weather and conditions. Our route of choice on Toubkal itself, is the north-cwm route (which is by far the less frequented of the main routes starting at the refuges below). However we will only attempt this route if weather, snow conditions and group abilities allow - otherwise we will climb Toubkal by the standard south-cwm route. Whichever route we do climb, you can be assured of a great day out! Expect a 7-8 hour energetic day before we get back to the refuge for late lunch. Then sit in the sun and re-live the day....
| | Day 4 - After breakfast, trek back to Imlil to arrive around lunch-time. Have lunch there before our transfer back to Marrakech. Aim to arrive Marrakech mid afternoon.
