Marrakech
Your adventure begins with an early departure from Marrakech.

Imlil
Arrive in Imlil, the lively mountain hub where most Toubkal treks begin. Enjoy a traditional welcome drink, meet your local guide, and get your gear ready. From here, the real trekking adventure starts.
30 minutes
3
Aroumd
Continue on foot through terraced fields and mule tracks to Aremd, the largest and highest village in the Imlil Valley. With its stone houses clinging to the hillside, Aremd offers a glimpse into authentic Berber mountain life.

Shrine Sidi Chamharouch
Hike up to this small but striking shrine, marked by a massive white boulder. It’s a local pilgrimage site and a natural resting point. Here you’ll break for lunch near a cascading mountain stream and take in the peaceful surroundings.
45 minutes

Refuge Toubkal Les Mouflons
By late afternoon, you reach the refuge — the climbers’ base camp. The atmosphere is special here, with hikers from around the world sharing meals and preparing for the summit attempt. You’ll spend the night here, resting up for the big push.
8 hours

Toubkal
While the actual climb to the summit happens the next morning, everything on Day 1 is about getting you closer to this goal. From the refuge, you can already look up at the mighty peak of Toubkal, your destination for sunrise tomorrow.
