Experience Overview
Jebel Toubkal, North Africa's highest peak, has captivated mountaineers for centuries. Our ascent up the rocky giant of North Africa — the tallest in the region — is no picnic, but is accessible to anyone in good shape and hungry for a thrilling high-altitude adventure. Traditional Amazigh communities line the route on this trip and you’ll have plenty of time to learn their customs through village visits and overnight camping with hearty home-cooked meals. The views on the way up are spectacular, but nothing compares to what you’ll see (and feel) at the top.
Highlights
- Walk in spectacular mountain scenery
- Taste delicious local cuisine
- Camp in the great outdoors
- Summit the spectacular peak of Mt. Toubkal.
