Morocco High Atlas Mountains Trek

Embark on an unforgettable adventure in the breathtaking High Atlas Mountains – a trekker’ paradise of rocky gorges, high altitude settlements, and stunning scenery. This challenge is tough but rewarding; where extreme temperatures and difficult climbs lead to diverse landscapes and village stays with a panoramic view of the majestic Atlas range. 

You can opt for a 5-day or 8-day trip, with the option of a 4-day ‘Edge of the Sahara’ extension for both trips. 

This is an Open Challenge so not everyone on the trip will be taking part for Macmillan Cancer Support and may be fundraising for other great causes.
