Atlas Mountains Challenge: Day Hike from Marrakech

Our driver will pick you up from your riad/hotel in Marrakech at 8:30 am and drive towards the High Atlas Mountains, passing the Moulay Brahim Gorges and Asni village, known for its weekly Berber market every Saturday. We continue to Ait Souka village (2,000m) in the upper foothills of the Western High Atlas. Here, we meet your local guide and muleteer/cook, and enjoy a welcome glass of mint tea before starting our trek towards Imlil Valley via the Ait Souka pass (1,900m). This pass offers stunning panoramic views of the Imlil and Tidli valleys. After a short break at the top, we descend towards the Aroumd River, overlooking several Berber villages such as Tamatert, to reach Ait Souka village. We take a small break in the village for a cup of mint tea in a traditional Berber home. Then, we continue along the riverside to the village of Aroumd, where we will have lunch in a Berber family house or by the river, prepared by our cook. After lunch, we hike up to Imlil Waterfalls Pass (1,990m), enjoying fantastic panoramic views of the neighboring High Atlas peaks and Imlil Valley with its villages. After a break at the pass, we walk down to Imlil town, where our driver will meet us and take us back to Marrakech.
