View of Toubkal

During the winter months, Mt Toubkal and the surrounding peaks of the High Atlas turn into a winter walkers' paradise.

It is a great time to visit: the mountains are virtually deserted apart from the local Berbers and a handful of enthusiasts. The air is clear, rewarding us with spectacular views over the Toubkal Massif and as far as the Anti Atlas Mountain Range to the south.

Starting from fascinating Marrakech we venture right into the heart of the High Atlas to climb North Africa's highest peak (4167m).

Crampons and ice axes may be required on some of the days, but this Atlas Mountain trek is designed to be non-technical and achievable by those who are enthusiastic and fit, even if they are new to winter walking.

RT TripWhat makes this trip responsible?

With regular leader training, we can ensure our responsible tourism practices are passed onto local leaders. Our local muleteer teams have supported these tours for over 20 years who want to continue preserving their way of life in this area. As recycling is not fully developed in Morocco, we recommend taking neutralising tablets to avoid using too many plastic water bottles and creating waste problems. We are working with various local villages to see how we can offer our support including how to reduce the amount of plastic waste in this area. With a small group size of just 8 clients, we hope to reduce our impact on the local environment.

Morocco Community project

After funding a water tower for the remote village of Tijhza in 2000, we have been involved in a variety of schemes requested by the Berbers to improve their community life. With a new water pipeline system fitted in the village, every house can now enjoy running water and our funds have also stretched to paying for much-needed operations for some of the children. Our biggest achievement is the village hammam (Moroccan steam bath) that will help with important hygiene issues as well as creating a self-sustainable income.
Get involved by sending your leftover dirhams to Amanda Ceraolo in the Exodus office; donate online via our website or join a volunteer departure (Trip code: AMO) led by project founder, Andy McKee.
