IMLIL-TREKKING.COM Jebel Toubkal — This hike can be done in two days with one overnight. It’s among the most popular treks in the area because it takes you to the summit of Mount Toubkal at 13,671 feet. Hikers normally begin their journey in Imlil situated 90 minutes from Marrakesh. You’ll stay overnight in a refuge, essentially a catered campsite hut, along the way. The total distance is about 18.8 miles. M’Goun Massif — This is a favorite among experienced hikers. The total length is about 35.4 miles, spread across a six-day, five-night hike beginning in Ait Bouguemez and continuing through the Tarkedit Plateau, the Aghouri pass, and the M’Goun peak. You will have the opportunity to see craggy valleys and strange rock formations on this trek, and avoid the crowds that are out to “bag” Mount Toubkal and then head home. Tizi n’Tacht Pass — This trek is a five-day, four-night hike that takes you through Berber villages and valleys and reaches elevations of over 6,500 feet, where you can see glistening snow-capped mountains from many directions. Imlil Valley — If your fitness levels aren’t up to multiday hikes, or if you are short on time, you can opt for a day hike through the Imlil Valley. Situated 37 miles from Marrakesh, the scenic day hike takes you through the Berber village of Asni, which has a weekly market on Saturday, and then the Imlil Crossing, a lush green valley. Ourika Valley — Situated less than 30 miles from Marrakesh, a trek in the Ourika Valley can be done as a leisurely guided day trip, which takes you to a Berber village and up to a waterfall in Siti Fatma. This is the ideal option for those in a rush or without a full set of backpacking gear.
