Day 5 IMLIL - AROUMD - SIDI CHAMHAROUCH - TOUBKAL REFUGE: After breakfast, we set out for about 4kms towards the south, up to the Berber villages of Aroumd (Aremd) (1843m) Taourirt, Targa, and lmoula. The route will take us up and down the stark slopes, all the time with the magnificent Western High Atlas peaks of the Toubkal Massif immediately before us. We shall stop at Aroumd to visit this rather singular village in the Assif n’Aït Mizane Valley, built seemingly house upon house on a large moraine spur, overlooking ancient irrigated terraced fields of fruit trees and vegetables. We carry on for a further 8kms to the equally-quaint village of Sidi Chamharouch, a Berber village set beside a waterfall and small stream, again with its pisé homes seemingly built somewhat chaotically one into another. We take a break for a picnic, with a full view of mighty Jbel Toubkal, at 4167m the highest peak in the Maghreb. Our last hike of the day takes us to the Toubkal Refuge for our dinner, and either our overnight campsite or overnight accommodation in the Refuge. Day 6 TOUBKAL REFUGE - SUMMIT JBEL TOUBKAL - SIDI CHAMHAROUCH - AROUMD - IMLIL - MARRAKECH: After a early breakfast, witness the spectacular sunrise and set off on a 3 hour steep climb which will take us to the highest peak in the Maghreb (4167m). You will have plenty of time to enjoy the view before taking the lkkhibi Sud or South Cirque for a straightforward 2 to 3 hour descent back to the Refuge for a picnic. Once refreshed we shall now set off towards the north along steeply descending, zigzagging trails of the higher slopes of the Valley of the Assif n’lsouhouanem n’Ouagounss towards the Berber village of Sidi Chamharouch (3106m). On leaving the village, we shall notice a tree, sacred to the local Berbers, where they hang strips of coloured cloth and pile up stones. We descend high above the valley of the Assif Mizane, down zigzagging trails around granite and basalt grey rocks back to the village of Aroumd (Aremd) (1840m), built on a spur of rock commanding one of the more fertile valleys of the High Atlas mountains with terraced, irrigated plots and fields of maize, onions and fruit trees on all sides. Here we shall stop for our picnic, before commencing the final part of the tour. Walk along the floor of the valley, then up a well-defined mule track zigzagging above the river to arrive in the Berber village of lmlil (1740m), with its paths and streams branching off in all directions. Here we will enjoy a hot shower and a glass of mint tea before our vehicle arrives to take us back to Marrakech.

images/mountain_trek/194_50.jpg

Day 1: You will be picked up from your hotel in Marrakech at 0800h (08:00 am). Travel south in a private car accompanied by an English-speaking guide over the Moulay Brahim Gorges and Upper valleys way up into the foothills of the Western High Atlas ranges, passing through Asni, where, to our left, we get our first real sight of mighty Jbel Toubkal and her sisters Aguelzim and Aksoual. We continue on to the Berber village of Ouirgane to meet up with our muleteers at the Hotel Au Sanglier Qui Fume, where we start our 6 hour hike. We strike out to the village of Touroud to take the piste which leads up to the Tassa Ouirgane National Park. At the village of Tassa Ouir, we hike up between juniper and redwoods to stop for our picnic. Once refreshed, we set off up the slopes, through the village of lkoubline until we reach the pretty village of Tizziane for our dinner and overnight accommodation in a Berber Gîte d’étape. Day 2: After breakfast we set out on our 6 hour hike up to traverse the Tizi n’Touati and into the Assaka Plateau where we stop for our picnic. In the afternoon our route takes us down the higher slopes, passing by the âazib n’Assaka and down to the Valley of the Assif D’Knt and the Berber village of D’Knt. Continue along the valley, through fields of potato and barley to our dinner and campsite in the âazib n’Assouâl. Day 3: After Breakfast, we set out for a 5 hour hike further towards the south, along goat trails and stark winding slopes to traverse the Tizi n’Taghoudalalte. Here we will rest awhile to admire the view, before starting to descend amidst the juniper trees to our picnic site. From here we set off down to the head of the Valley of the n’Aït Ouissa’dane, crossing the river to hike alongside irrigation ditches and small mills towards the last village in this valley Tizi Oussem. Here we will find the Jbels Tasghimout to our left, Aguelzim and Tazaghârt to the right and it is here that we set up our campsite for the night and have dinner Day 4: After breakfast we set out on a 4½ hour trek to climb up the Aït Ouissa’dane Valley towards the peak of the Aoirir n’lrg. We will climb as far as âazib n’Tamsoult and from here we will gain a close-up view of the snow-capped Jbel Toubkal. From here we climb up to the Tamsoult Cascade, to continue up through the rocks to the final Tazaghârt refuge. Tonight’s dinner and accommodation will be in the refuge. Day 5: Today we will take a 7½ hour trek up steep off-the-beaten tracks to traverse the remote and challenging Tizi n’Taddate. We follow rarely trodden loose-pebbled goat trails to the Jbel Bignouissen and up to our picnic on this beautiful summit and sight of tomorrow’s challenge: Jbel Toubkal. Then to the Toubkal Refuge. Here we shall have tonight’s dinner, and overnight accommodation in the Refuge or under canvas. Day 6: An early breakfast and then set out at around 0500h (5am) for a 3 hour steep climb to Maghreb. We shall descend via the lkkhibi Sud - or South Circuit - for a straightforward 2 to 3 hour descent back to the Refuge and our picnic. This afternoon, we shall take a gentle hike south-eastwards up for a couple of hours to the head of the Assif Aït Mizane Valley and Tizi n’Ounoums. When ready, we return to the area of the Toubkal refuge for our welcome dinner, campsite or overnight accommodation in the refuge. Day 7: After breakfasted, we shall now set off on our final 4½ hour lap back towards the north along steeply descending, rocky, zigzagging and sometimes precarious trails of the higher slopes of the Valley of the Assif n’Isouhouanem n’Ouagounss - rich in seasonal wildflowers, some only to be found in this specific area, including, in spring, the splendid, multi-petalled Peony Rose - towards the Berber village of Sidi Chamharouchwhere we’ll stop for our picnic besides a small waterfall. On leaving the village, we shall notice a tree, sacred to the local Berbers, where they hang strips of colored cloth and pile up stones around the trunk. We descend for about 8kms. high above the valley of the Assif n’Aït Mizane, down zigzagging trails around granite and basalt grey rocks to Aroumd (Aremd) (1843m), built on a spur of moraine rock commanding one of the more fertile valleys of the High Atlas mountains with terraced, irrigated plots and fields of maize, onions and fruit trees on all sides. Continuing on through groves of almond and walnut trees for some 4kms along the floor of the valley, thence up a well-defined mule track zigzagging above the oued to arrive, finally, at the Berber village of Imlil (1740m), Morocco’s ‘Little Chamonix,’ we shall halt here to enjoy a glass of mint tea - or two - at the Gîte d’étape of our senior guide prior to rejoining our vehicle by around 4.30 to take us back to Marrakech.

Le Lorem Ipsum est simplement du faux texte employé dans la composition et la mise en page avant impression. Le Lorem Ipsum est le faux texte standard de l'imprimerie depuis les années 1500, quand un imprimeur anonyme assembla ensemble des morceaux de texte pour réaliser un livre spécimen de polices de texte. Il n'a pas fait que survivre cinq siècles, mais s'est aussi adapté à la bureautique informatique, sans que son contenu n'en soit modifié. Il a été popularisé dans les années 1960 grâce à la vente de feuilles Letraset contenant des passages du Lorem Ipsum, et, plus récemment, par son inclusion dans des applications de mise en page de texte, comme Aldus PageMaker.
