Imlil Day Hike from Marrakech | Local Guide & Lunch
About Imlil Day Hike from Marrakech | Local Guide & Lunch
A full-day Imlil hike from Marrakech with a local guide, village paths, walnut groves, a home-cooked lunch in Aroumd and views toward Mount Toubkal.
From Marrakech, it takes about 90 minutes to reach Imlil, our home valley at the foot of Mount Toubkal. The walking program is flexible and can be adapted to your schedule: choose a shorter 2–3-hour hike or a fuller 4–5-hour route. We begin on the old paths above Ait Souka, walking through walnut groves and terraced fields toward Tizi n’Tamatert. From the viewpoint, you can look across the Imlil and Imnane valleys before we descend to Aroumd, also written Armed, the highest village in the valley. Lunch is prepared in a local home, then we return toward Imlil by way of the waterfalls. It is a good choice for travellers who want fresh mountain air, a real hike and time in the villages with guides who know these trails well.
