About Toubkal & Imlil
Jebel Toubkal (4,167m) is the highest mountain in North Africa and the trekking highlight of Morocco — accessible from the charming mountain village of Imlil in the High Atlas. The region offers spectacular mountain landscapes, traditional Berber villages with terraced agriculture, and hospitality that is unmatched. The ascent of Toubkal is not a technical climbing route but a challenging hike that can be done without mountaineering experience.
