Seasons
Best time is probably late Spring, although for the very tough (who don’t mind it hot) other times of the year are possible. Ramadan will affect surplies and support.
Centres
Marrakech is the main acess to the high mountains to Toubkal, Mgoun and Jebel Sahro regions.
Difficulty
Tough and wild trekking, scrambling. Also high (Toubkal is 4167m). Plenty of support in the main areas but the skills of independent travel in high mountains are essential in quieter regions.
Must See
Big mountains, deep gorges, Berber peoples and culture.
 
 

The Atlas Mountains of Morocco offer an incredible variety of scenery, climate and terrain, where the Berbers’ way of life has changed little in a thousand years. There are also opportunities to walk and climb throughout the year, making it a particularly desirable destination for the outdoor enthusiast. This new edition, now fully updated, provides you with all the information to help make your trip a successful one.

The guide includes a useful introduction providing all the practical advice you will require as a visitor to Morocco. It gives detailed descriptions of walks to the three regions of Toubkal, Mgoun Massif and Jebel Sahro, and has a separate chapter on other areas for walking in Morocco. The appendix provides useful addresses, bibliography and a glossary and information on the traverses and ski-touring possibilities in the region.
