About Mount Toubkal
Mount Toubkal, 4,167 metres, is the highest mountain in North Africa and the Arab world, towering over the High Atlas south of Marrakech. The classic 2-day climb starts from the Berber village of Imlil, follows a mule path past the Sidi Chamharouch shrine, then climbs to the Refuge du Toubkal at 3,207 metres for the night. A 4am summit push gets you to the top for sunrise, with views stretching to the Sahara on one side and the Atlantic on the other. The route is non-technical from April to October but requires crampons and an ice axe from November to March.
