3 Days Walking Atlas Mountains from Marrakech

During the Berber Village Exploring you will spend 3 days with the Berber people of the Atlas Mountains. Your journey will start in the beautiful Imnan Valley, with its terraces and small towns set into the hillsides.

The Berber people are a very ancient people that predate the arrival of the Arabs and Islam. Their lifestyles have grown in harmony with their beautiful, but severe environment. Berber food has kept them strong for the mountains: it consists of breads, soups and barley products in the main – and only the Berbers themselves can make it. Many Berbers make their homes from pise, which is a combination of stone and mud, for their families, which tend to be large.

Before you get back to Imlil village to pick you up back again to Marrakech to have more time if you like to explore other parts of Morocco

    Buen equipo y excelente organización, nunca imaginé subir al Toubkal, no soy montañera, pero con la ayuda de nuestro guía Rachid lo logré.
    Aparte del senderismo, hemos conocido de cerca la cultura bereber y sus costumbres, y sobre todo la buena comida que nos preparaba nuestro cocinero Lahcen durante los días de la ruta; hemos pasado unos días comiendo los típico de Marruecos disfrutando de la montaña y del paisaje, que tanto nos gusta.
    Recomiendo 100% Marruecos Adventure por su profesionalidad y el bien hacer la cosa.
