Details

We treat this as a moderate trek (its only a day and includes 700m of ascent and 600m of descent). It is a great trek, with classic views of the Imlil and Azzaden Valleys and a taxi back to Imlil at the end. Maybe 5-6 hours of walking.

This trip includes a hike through the Toubkal National Park, the Tizi n’Mzik Pass and a visit to Tizi Oussem Village and the top of the stunning Azzaden Valley. We will provide you with a packed lunch.
