About this tour

Go beyond trekking and live inside High Atlas culture. Over three gentle days you walk between two mountain villages, staying each night as a guest of an Amazigh family.

You share meals, help bake bread, watch weaving, join the farm work and sit with elders who remember a very different mountain life. The walking is easy – 20–24 km in total with about 600 m of ascent – but the connection runs deep.
