Is the Toubkal Trek Challenge Right For You?

Discover if this adventure is right for you

Physical Challenge

Moderate FitnessMountain Goat

Summit day involves 9-10 hours walking with significant altitude gain - If you can hike UK’s Snowdon in a day, you’re ready

Experience Required

BeginnerMountaineer

No technical mountaineering skills needed - just enthusiasm and decent fitness for this non-technical trek

Comfort Level

BasicLuxury

Clean, comfortable accommodation with authentic mountain refuge experience - expect basic but perfectly adequate facilities

How to Prepare
Get out every week for a 10–15 km walk in the hills with a 5–8 kg backpack, throw in some stair climbs or lunges to build leg strength, break in your boots, and drink plenty of water—Morocco stays warm even up high. Two weeks before you go, dial back the workouts, stretch well, and catch extra sleep so you’re rested and ready for Toubkal.

Worried About Altitude Sickness?

At 4,167m, altitude sickness is the biggest concern for Toubkal climbers. While serious altitude sickness is very rare on Toubkal, many people experience mild symptoms like headaches or nausea. The good news? Our experienced guides know exactly how to manage this.

Our Proven Altitude Strategy
Our guides are trained to recognise altitude symptoms and maintain a steady, sensible pace for proper acclimatisation. The key is staying hydrated, moving slowly, and listening to your body. With over 92% summit success rate, we know how to get you to the top safely. Most people manage the altitude well with proper guidance.
