SUMMITS &
RIDGES IN THE WESTERN HIGH ATLAS
There
are literally hundreds of 3000m mountains in the High Atlas - some
of which have only had a handful of ascents ever!
The
variety of treks that the region offers is huge - indeed once you get off the
"beaten track" you can think you are the only person in
the world (apart that is from the Berber shepherd who always seems
to be watching you!). We have a number of programmes and itineraries
designed to help you achieve your own / your groups particular
summit ambitions.
We have a number of standard itinerary "off
the peg" trips and will run these with a minimum of 2
persons as either private (closed) or public trips. If you opt to
make your trip open for others to join you, then we will advertise
it as a public trip which attracts a price discount.
If you are interested in a Customised
/ Private Trip for you / your group, please have a read
of this page first and then email us with your ideas /
requests.

Ridges trekking routes in the Western High Atlas.

with the geography of the Atlas range - just

a new window.)
- Tichka to Tin Mal Mosque.
Dubbed the "Wonder Trek" by Hamish Brown, this is a
trek starting from the Tichka Plateau in the Western Atlas and
following the Oued (river) nFis eastwards as it wends its way
through gorges and steep valleys to the ancient 11th century Tin
Mal Mosque on the Tizi-n-Test road. Takes about 7-10 days
depending on how energetic you want to be! Stunning trek.
- Tin Mal to Toubkal. This
can be a separate trek or an extension to the one above. Is a
good introduction to the western side of the Toubkal range and
covers a mixture of valley / village trekking as well as passing
over high cols to finish at the base of Toubkal. Takes about 5
days.
- Tour of Tichka. A week
long circuit of the Tichka plateau in the Western Atlas. Great
combination of village trekking, high mountain scenery and
crossing over high passes.
