Itinerary
SUNDAY 13TH
The call of the desert
From the moment you step onto the minibus, the journey will be a portal to another world. We will drive through dreamlike landscapes, with stops to capture the essence of the desert in photos and a delicious lunch to recharge our batteries.
Upon arrival at the camp near Mhamid, you will be greeted by the Bedouins, the guardians of the desert, who will transport your luggage on camels while you immerse yourself in the immensity of the dunes. A warm welcome with tea and a spectacular sunset mark the beginning of this odyssey. In the evening, under a breathtaking starry sky, we will unite around a campfire, sharing stories and music that enliven the soul. It is only the beginning of something great!
MONDAY 14TH
Crossing the dunes, awakening your power
Sunrise in the desert is pure magic, and you will experience it from the first ray of sunlight. Our journey begins through golden dunes, challenging the terrain and learning techniques to master them while working as a team. Here you will discover the strength within you and the unique connection that arises between those who share this challenge. We will travel 10-15 km learning dune technique, while having fun, letting ourselves be amazed by the beauty of the Sahara and supporting each other.
The day ends with an arrival at the new camp where tea, an exquisite traditional dinner and the sunset show will be the prelude to a magical night. Around the campfire, with music and Bedouin stories, the endless sky will be the mirror of your greatness.
TUESDAY 15TH
From the sands to the embrace of the mountains
We will bid farewell to the desert with a final walk that will remain engraved in our hearts. Then, we will head towards the High Atlas Mountains, where the picturesque village of Imlil will welcome us with its fresh air and unique energy. Here begins a new chapter of this epic adventure.
WEDNESDAY 16TH
Rising to the sky
The hike through the Mizane Valley is a display of natural and cultural beauty. We will pass through villages such as Aremd, where local life vibrates with authenticity, and we will ascend along paths that will take us further than we ever imagined. The arrival at the refuge at 3,206 meters will be an achievement in itself, but the real challenge awaits us the next day. Here you feel that everything is possible!
THURSDAY 17TH
Summit of Toubkal and Descent through History
The day begins early, under the blanket of stars. We head towards the summit of Mount Toubkal, the highest point in North Africa, at 4,167 metres above sea level. Reaching the summit will be an unforgettable achievement: from the top, the views are a true gift, a sea of mountains stretching as far as the eye can see.
After celebrating our ascent, we begin our descent with a special stop: the remains of the Lockheed L-749 Constellation plane, which crashed in 1969, a corner full of history in the middle of these imposing mountains. We return to the refuge to rest and reflect on this day full of emotions.
FRIDAY 18TH
Descent to Imlil and Welcome to Marrakech
We descend towards Imlil, enjoying the last views of the High Atlas. After a comforting lunch in the village, we head towards Marrakech, the vibrant city that will welcome us with its mix of tradition and modernity.
We will spend the night in a luxury Riad, a traditional Moroccan accommodation with interior courtyards decorated with mosaics and fountains. This will be a perfect place to relax, surrounded by the beauty and serenity of Moroccan architecture, it will be a hug for the body and soul. A relaxing hammam awaits you, a traditional massage and a dinner under the stars with live music will be the perfect celebration of all you have achieved.
SATURDAY 19TH
Charm of the Medina
We will explore the Medina of Marrakech, a place that awakens all the senses. We will stroll through its colorful souks, taste typical sweets and absorb the magic of this city full of history and life. It is the perfect time to recharge our batteries and take a little piece of Morocco with us in our hearts. Its colors, aromas and sounds will envelop you as you explore markets, stories and secrets that seem straight out of a fairy tale. This day is an invitation to enjoy, connect and celebrate.
