here's AN OVERVIEW OF our adventure itinerary
Day one
Arrive in the beautiful city of Marrakech. Make your own way to the hotel, check out the souks if you have time, and be ready to have a team catch-up at 3pm ahead of beginning the trek tomorrow. Here you'll meet The Living Project's Josh as well as your local expert guide. Our local expert guide works for our incredible in-country agents who support the team with in-country logistics, making arrangements (yoga/surf etc) and support The Living Project in providing effective safety, and if required, emergency response. Together your guide and Josh will answer any questions and ensure everyone’s ready and prepared for the mountain. After the introductions head out into the sights, sounds and smells of Marrakech and grab a bite to eat before getting some kip.
Day two
We’ll be starting early today. We’ll breakfast at the hotel before jumping in private transport to head out to the High Atlas Mountains and the lovely village of Imlil. Lunch will be provided after an hour-ish of walking in the small village of Aroumd. From here we’ll be trekking 4-5hrs up to the refuge where we’ll eat and spend the night. By this time we’ll already be at 3207m above sea level and once the sun goes down it will be a little chilly.
Day three
Summit Day! We start even earlier than the day before as we begin our trek to the summit of Mt. Toubkal, the highest mountain in North Africa at 4167m. It’s a tough long day but well worth it. From the summit the views are magnificent… to the north we see the fertile plains of the Magreb and Marrakech, and to the south, the wild rugged landscape of the pre-Sahara. After the summit we’ll trek back to the refuge for lunch and then back down to Aroumd for dinner and the most well-earned sleep you’ll ever have.
DAY FOUR
Not a super early start! We’ll breakfast in Aroumd before getting our transport to Tagazhout - the centre of Morocco’s surf scene. We’ll be staying at a special surf camp for the next few days and you’ll have the opportunity to explore the surfing and yoga of your choice. We’ll take dinner together in our new home by the sea. (Lunch is up to you).
DAY FIVE
A day for you. Explore Tagazhout, grab some surf, move through some yoga, rest. Optional surf and yoga lessons (including kit hire) can be arranged. Breakfast and Dinner are included and will be taken together. Lunch is up to you.
DAY SIX
Another day for you. Explore Tagazhout, grab some surf, move through some yoga, rest. Optional surf and yoga lessons (including kit hire) can be arranged. Breakfast and Dinner are included and will be taken together. Lunch is up to you.
Day SEVEN
After breakfast we’ll travel back to Marrakech and after checking in at the hotel you’ll have the chance to explore the magic of Marrakech. There’ll be an optional walking tour of the souks and the famous Jamaa el Fna square (taking in the amazing Museum de la Photographie) and we’ll organise a final group dinner somewhere special to celebrate our adventure together. Lunch will be up to you.
Day EIGHT
Waking to the sound of the Muezzin’s of Marrakech, we’ll enjoy our final breakfast together After that this journey ends, and another begins……
