At the Atlantic and to the southwest, the range drops abruptly and makes a transition to the coast and the Anti-Atlas range. To the north, in the direction of Marrakesh, the range descends less abruptly. On the heights of Ouarzazate the massif is cut through by the Draa Valley which opens southward. It is mainly inhabited by Berber people, who live in small villages and cultivate the high plains of the Ourika Valley.

Amazing trip! - We took one day trip from Marrakech to Imlil. Huge thanks to our guide Mohammed Sarkozy who took care of us perfectly. He showed us all the best spots and shared a lot of interesting information about mountains on the way. We felt very safe, we could easily see that he is a very experienced guide. Also a warm and funny person. We recommend the trip and especially the guide if you want to run away from noisy Marrakech!

Awesome day hiking 15km - Awesome day hiking organised last minute by Mustapha at Toubkal Trekking. Our guide Mohammed led us on a 15km hike with 1,000 vertical climbing up a local peak. The Imlil valley is stunning and hiking in the Atlas was the highlight of our trip. Thanks Mustapha and Mohammed! 🙏🏼

Highlight of Honeymoon - This trip was such a highlight of our honeymoon through Spain and Morocco. An easy, yet rich experience that we decided upon last minute gave us such a greater perspective of the beauty of Morocco, camels, views, mountains, food and the people. Loved getting out of the city for a day. Would have done longer had we had the time. We hope to be back for more!

A great experience with beautiful views! - I had a lovely experience on this tour. Our tour was intimate -- just myself and a lovely couple from France. Our knowledgeable and friendly guide switched easily between French and English as he responded to our questions about the Atlas Mountains and the Berber communities. Our meal in the mountains was incredible and unforgettable. A great tour, a professional guide, and a wonderful value.

Cultural Experience I’ll Never Forget - My trip to Marrakech and the Atlas Mountains was my first time to the African continent. My favorite experience was being able to learn and breathe the rich culture and history of the Berber villages and Atlas Mountains that Mustapha provided. The opportunity to stop and have dinner with the valley in the background was something you would only imagine in a fairy tale. By far my favorite experience on international travel to this day. Highly recommend booking a culture filled and adventure filled experience with Mustapha.

Great day trip - We had an amazing day trip from marrakesh. Our highlight was walking in the mountains to Mustapha's village and having a delicious hoke cooked lunch on his house's roof. Mustapha was a great host and took time to chat to us and make us feel very welcome.
I would definitely recommend it
