About this tour

The mountains around Imlil hold some of the best day hiking in Morocco: old mule tracks between hidden villages, ridge paths with views across the Toubkal massif and quiet walnut valleys. Your licensed guide picks the route on the morning to match your fitness and the weather.

Expect 12–14 km and around 600 m of climbing, topping out between 2,500 and 2,800 m. Along the way you stop for tea with a village family and a picnic of tagine, bread and fruit at a viewpoint.
