This expedition is arranged by World Challenge<\/p>

DAY 1 – 30 JUN 25 – ARRIVAL
Arrive in Marrakech.
From Transit to Marrakech<\/p>

Upon arrival in Marrakech we pass immigration and collect our baggage. We meet our pre-booked transfer in the arrivals hall and travel to our accommodation. After lunch we explore the Place Jemaa el-Fna and the Souks.<\/p>

DAY 2 – 01 JUL 25 – TRAVEL TO AREMD
Today is a travel day. We make the journey to Aremd Village.
From Marrakech to Aremd<\/p>

DAY 3 – 02 JUL 25 – CLASSIC MOUNT TOUBKAL TREK DAY 1
Begin the trek from Aremd.
From Aremd to Aremd<\/p>

The team carry daypacks on this trek. Pack mules are provided and will carry your full packs, group kit and supplies.<\/p>

Trek Day 1 Description:
Today is an acclimatisation day. We head northwest out of the village for 2km until the track bends left into a new valley. For the next 3 hours, the track hugs the left side of the valley and gets progressively steeper as we reach the Tizi h’Mzik Pass (2489m). After we’ve enjoyed the incredible views, we return to Aremd via the same route.
Option 2: From your accommodation, walk through the village and onto a track which gets progressively
steeper over the next 3 hours. There can be a little scree on the track. The track takes you to Kinss Waterfall
(2500m). The waterfall isn’t much of a spectacle, but if there’s good weather, there will be great views across
the valley. Return to Aremd via the same route.<\/p>

DAY 4 – 03 JUL 25 – CLASSIC MOUNT TOUBKAL TREK DAY 2
Full day of trekking.
From Aremd to High Campsite<\/p>

Trek Day 2 Description:
We leave Aremd on the trail that zigzags up the valley. After 2 hours, the trail crosses over a stream, just before the hamlet of Sidi-Chamharouch. From here, it is a 2-3 hour ascent to the campsite where we wild camp in our tents tonight, sleeping on our sleeping mats and using your sleeping bags.<\/p>

DAY 5 – 04 JUL 25 – CLASSIC MOUNT TOUBKAL TREK DAY 3
Full day of trekking to the summit.
From High Campsite to High Campsite<\/p>

Trek Day 3 Description:
Today is a very early start and some of our trekking is completed in the dark, we need our head torch for the ascent as the aim is to reach the summit for sunrise. From camp, hike to the Neltner Refuge (3207m) which should take around 30 minutes. The paths are well defined, but become quite steep with a lot of loose rock and scree. When leaving the refuge, climb on the path that moves to the left of the slope before following the path that zigzags up to the Tizi n’Toubkal Pass (3940m). The path now turns northeast and follows the ridge to the summit (4167m). Descend back to camp via the same route.<\/p>

DAY 6 – 05 JUL 25 – CLASSIC MOUNT TOUBKAL TREK DAY 4

This initiative contributes to SDG11 Sustainable Cities and Communities. The organisation’s key focus is community development in harmony with the environment.

From Tazitounte we trek into the community. The team carry day packs. Excess luggage is transported by vehicle to our accommodation.
Please Note:
A member of the community will accompany the group for the walk as an environmental interpreter.<\/p>

Starting from Tazitounte bus stop on Ourika road, cross the bridge on the opposite side of the road. Follow the tarmac road winding uphill towards the village of Agard. After the first bend, take the small path that runs along the river. After taking a break, continue along the path until the stadium of Anamer. The path begins to gently descend towards a stream before ascending towards the village of Tizi n’Oucheg, where the gite is located.<\/p>

The path will become well marked again, continue to climb up to a small pass, heading northeast and arriving at the flat, grassy Pasture Plateau (2100m). Take the path to the left for the final ascent to Yagour Plateau (2450m). Go due north, crossing the plateau between boulders and sandstone slabs and arriving at the prehistoric village for lunch.
