Mount Toubkal 3-Day Trek - Explore the High Atlas Mountains
About This Journey
A comprehensive 3-day trek to the summit of Mount Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa.
3-Day Mount Toubkal Round Trek Challenge yourself on a stunning 3-day adventure to the summit of Mount Toubkal — North Africa’s highest peak (4,167m). This circular trekking route takes you deep into the Atlas Mountains, through varied valleys and over dramatic mountain passes, before culminating in a sunrise ascent of Toubkal on the final day. Though short, this trek is considered one of the most demanding Toubkal routes due to elevation gains and terrain — but also one of the most scenic. You’ll experience a mix of rugged wilderness, remote waterfalls, panoramic ridge walks, and high-altitude refuge stays, all under the guidance of experienced local mountain guides. Note: This trek can be combined with a Sahara Desert tour for a complete mountain-to-dunes Moroccan experience.
