The Atlas Mountains are one of the most exotic areas to go ski touring. To go on a skiing holiday to a country more famous for its deserts and beaches is an original experience that will certainly leave an impression.
Toubkal, with an elevation of 4167 m is the highest mountain in Northern Africa. It is surrounded by high mountains that together form a massive mountain range about 64 km south of Marrakech. The mountains position, altitude and valley surroundings mean that it snows here throughout the winter.
This ski trip will take us each day to a new valley with magnificent landscape. We will live in mountain huts and gîtes (simple hotels) and we will be accompanied by a local group: a guide, a cook, carriers and donkeys that will carry our equipment when we go down the valley.
