Toubkal National Park, established in 1942, is located in Morocco's High Atlas Mountains, about 70 kilometers from Marrakesh, covering 380 square kilometers. Dominated by Jbel Toubkal, North Africa's highest peak at 4,167 meters, the park features diverse landscapes ranging from cedar and juniper forests to rugged peaks. Visitors can explore the Berber village of Imlil, a cultural gateway to the region, or visit the park's ecomuseum to learn about its history and conservation efforts. Recognized as an Important Bird Area, the park supports species such as Barbary partridges and Moussier's redstarts, alongside ancient archaeological sites and a variety of notable peaks.

A beautiful place, a very gentle approach to the shelter with a lot of local huts where you can buy freshly squeezed juices or eat something during trekking. The approach from the shelter to the peak is also easy.

This was truely a remarkable area of natural beauty. The way of life here is much simpler than here in the u.k. It provides an opportunity to enjoy nature at its best whilst immersing yourself into a beautiful way of the Atlas people. Would highly recommend a visit here. People are so kind and humble here.

Beautiful parc with lot of adventure opportunities. The sightseeing are wonderfull. I am a beginner on climbing and trekking and was not introduced to the risks of this particular adventure, any small issue can be fatal on those areas as help can not go quickly or easily through the mountains and the only way to move faster is the donkeys. I climbed to the top in August, the temperature was 9 degrees but the very strong winds was making it colder so always prepare very warm clothes. You need to choose well you guide, our guide was very rushing and was not nice, which did not make the experience as good as we wanted. I faced some issues with my eyes due to the altitude but the guide was not at all helping or giving advices, I was also in hypothermia and here as well he was not conscious of the seriousness that this could have. The whole experience is fantastic but next time I would choose a better guide and come very equipped for any issue that could happen in this isolated place.
