Family Morocco - Atlas Trails Summary

Add to Shortlist

Day 1 Marrakech

Marrakech is a feast for the senses. Be enticed by the alluring scents and brilliant colours of the spice markets, the sounds of the musicians and the perfume of its gardens.

Day 2 Marrakech

Join a guided walk through the narrow alleyways and colourful souks of this former Imperial city, absorbing Marrakech's history and learning more about its rich legacy influenced by Arab, Berber and French cultures. Set against the backdrop of the Atlas Mountains - the group's next destination - there is a hypnotic madness to the old city and by night the Djemaa el-Fna comes to life, with its myriad of food stalls turning the central square into a giant open-air restaurant.

Day 3 Oukaimeden to Gliz

One of the best places for skiing in Africa, the resort town of Oukaimeden has excellent views across the valley to the peak of Angour.

Day 4 Aguersioual Pass

The High Atlas region is a spectacular mix of fertile valleys, friendly Berber villages and soaring, snowcapped peaks - the amazing scenery will take your breath away.

Days 5-6 Aremd

Perched on a rocky outcrop, the remote village of Aroumd offers stunning views across the High Atlas Mountains and a unique opportunity to experience traditional Berber culture.

Day 7 Marrakech

Marrakech is home to a seemingly endless mosaic of souqs. Each is devoted to a separate trade: pottery, woodwork, copper, leather, carpets and spices.
