Trek Mount Toubkal8th Oct 2025

Trek Mount Toubkal

From:£895

Summary

Begin your adventure in the vibrant city of Marrakech before heading into the High Atlas Mountains. The trek starts from the mountain village of Imlil, ascending through the dramatic Azzaden Valley and over high mountain passes. Experience nights under canvas at remote mountain camps, including the Neltner base camp at 3,207m. 

The challenging route covers approximately 26-27 kilometres over three days of trekking, with significant elevation gains totaling over 3,600m of ascent. The highlight is the pre-dawn summit attempt of Mount Toubkal, rewarding successful climbers with panoramic views across the Atlas Mountains and, on clear days, the Sahara Desert. 

This carefully crafted itinerary combines physical challenge with cultural experiences, from meeting traditional Berber communities to celebrating in a historic Marrakech palace. The trek requires good fitness levels and some mountain walking experience, with proper acclimatisation built into the route. 

In remote locations, mules will be used to carry equipment and luggage. We take the care and treatment of animals seriously. They are only used where it is impossible to use motor vehicles, and all suppliers that work with animals are chosen if they can demonstrate a suitable animal care policy.

This trek is not designed for Olympic athletes – it is designed for people looking for an amazing goal to train and get fit for. A number of the people who will take part in this challenge will have a low level of fitness level when they sign up.

This challenge is the perfect motivation to get fit, improve your own mental and physical health and make a difference for the charity that means the most to you.

We strongly recommend you train for the trek as we’ll face long days on our feet, encounter some steep climbs and tackle a lot of uneven terrains, and the fitter you are, the more you’ll enjoy it.

You can start training straight away with our trekking training plan available at https://www.dream-challenges.com/preparation . This builds up gradually over time, so you’ll be ready and raring to go by the time we depart for Morocco.

Please invest in a pair of quality hiking boots with ankle support to wear during your training and on your trek in Morocco, as these are essential for walking on uneven terrain. We also recommend incorporating hills in your training treks.
