Details
This is a great trip for trekkers who don’t want to hike up Mount Toubkal but still want to explore our countryside (its actually part of the route to Mount Toubkal). It is 600m of ascent and includes 6 hours of walking so we have graded it as ‘moderate’. Families can do a shorter route and mules can be hired for children if need be.
This trek offers a visit to the shrine of Sidi Chamharouch (‘The King Of Jinns’), amazing mountain scenery and views, waterfalls and a picnic lunch (usually in a picturesque, quiet spot next to a stream).
