This fabulous week away offers stunning scenery, a challenging trek and a tantalizing taste of Marrakech. We start our trek in the foothills of the High Atlas, where picturesque valleys are lined with juniper and pine trees, walnut groves and cherry orchards offer shade and terraced fields of corn and barley are tended by Berber farmers. As we climb higher into the fresh mountain air we cross deep gorges and mountain passes, trekking through tiny Berber villages where life has remained virtually unchanged for centuries. We stay in mountain gites where we experience the famous Berber hospitality and glasses of sweet warming mint tea. As we hike steadily closer to we begin to rise above the tree line, the landscape becomes barren and the trail zigzags far above us towards the peak. Our ascent is a long but exhilarating day of trekking, culminating in a steep climb up the final slope to the summit at 4,167 m. From here the view is superb, we stand as a team and look out across the Marrakech Plain to the High Atlas Mountains in the north and to the Anti-Atlas Mountains and the Sahara in the far south.
