Itinerary
The
Central Atlas is a remote area with beautifully cultivated
valleys and hillsides, wooded with juniper and Mediterranean oak.
Its remote location has meant that the inhabitants have
maintained a traditional rural way of life, unchanged for
decades. An ascent of Jebel Mgoun at 4068m is a highlight of the
trek. Our trip finishes in Marrakech with time to experience the
vibrancy of this beautiful city at night.
Day 01: Transfer from Marrakech to Azilal where we meet up with
the muleteers. We will have dinner there and spend the night in
bivouac.
