Walking Holidays in Africa

Africa Walking Holidays

Africa is a vast and diverse continent made up of stunning landscapes and skylines pierced by imposing peaks, such as the Atlas Mountains, Kilimanjaro and the Drakensberg Mountains, so it’s no surprise that walking holidays in Africa are popular with adventure seekers. Mt. Toubkal, located in Morocco’s Atlas Mountains and standing at an impressive height of 4,167m, is the highest peak in North Africa.

The ascent to the summit is undoubtedly hard going but the rewards exceed the challenges. As well as being treated to magnificent views of the surrounding valleys and peaks on Africa walking adventure holidays, you’ll also encounter the local Berber people and learn about their culture and traditions.

Another iconic destination for walking holidays in Africa is Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest peak on the continent, which reaches 5,895m. Although the climb to the summit isn’t technically demanding, it does require stamina, determination and acclimatisation. There are various routes to the summit which steer you through diverse landscapes, from lush rainforests to barren alpine deserts. The sense of accomplishment once you’ve reached the summit is incomparable.

The Drakensberg Mountains in South Africa are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and you’ll find a range of trails and hikes that meander through picturesque valleys, where ancient rock art gives you a glimpse into the past. Wildlife lovers will be in their element at Kruger National Park as it’s home to the famous Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo) as well as many other species. Madagascar is another biodiversity hotspot that boasts unique flora and fauna found nowhere else on earth, and our Trekking in Madagascar introduces you to its national parks, lemurs and traditional villages.

Under the expert leadership of our guide, Ibrahim, we hiked through the stark beauty of the rocky Anti Atlas Mountains where we encountered only the inhabitants of remote villages.

I am so glad that I found Exodus Adventure Travels online and so glad that I booked my trip to Morocco with them. I was very impressed with how comprehensive the itinerary was and I am so happy that I got to see and do so much in fifteen days. There were lots of opportunities to discover and learn about the various places we visited, both with the group and when we had free time to explore on our own.

I really enjoyed the varied activities we did – hiking, eating in non-touristy restaurants, meeting locals, and, of course, riding camels – and I also really liked the different types of accommodations we stayed in.

The best of part of all was the fantastic guide we had who did an amazing job imparting his knowledge and sharing so much information with us about the history and culture and the people of Morocco. Mohammed is patient, respectful, and caring, as well as a great communicator who made sure that everyone felt well taken care of and that nobody missed out on anything. Thank you, Mohammed, for everything you did that made this trip the best travel experience I have ever had!!!

This was one of my favourite treks . We saw absolutely no other tourists on this trek . In the villages , the local people were so friendly . We managed to converse in pigeon french and were shown the local toad pond by some little boys in one village , had mint tea in a villagers home in another and were dressed as brides in another village . Everyone was so hospitable .
