Such a great experience!! He was a very good tour guide who helped us all be safe.
An unforgettable hiking experience through the Atlas Mountains, this route takes you from the charming village of Imlil up to the summit of Tedli at 2,500 metres. Along the way, enjoy scenic trails, traditional Berber villages, and impressive mountain views. With a local guide leading the way, you'll gain insights into the region’s culture while taking in the spectacular surroundings.
The day begins with a hotel pick-up from Marrakech, followed by a scenic drive through the countryside to Imlil. This small mountain village is the perfect starting point for the hike.
After enjoying a fresh breakfast, set off on the trail, beginning at 1,740 metres above sea level. The journey takes you through Ait Souka and the Berber village of Tamatert at 1,800 metres, passing through almond and walnut groves along the way.
As the ascent continues, the landscape opens up to incredible views of Jbel Toubkal and neighbouring peaks.
Reaching the summit of Tedli at 2,500 metres is a rewarding moment, with panoramic mountain views stretching as far as the eye can see. After taking in the surroundings, enjoy a delicious lunch in the fresh mountain air before making your way back down to Imlil.
There’s time to explore the town, visit the Imlil waterfall, and soak in the peaceful atmosphere before heading back to Marrakech.
The day ends with a taste of traditional Moroccan cuisine—warm, hearty soup like Harira or Bissara—before the return transfer.
Pick-up and drop-off from your accommodation in Marrakech is included in your booking.
The hike starts in Imlil, a village in the High Atlas Mountains where your local guide, Mohamed, is from. It is located about 90 minutes from Marrakech. Imlil serves as the gateway to Toubkal National Park and is surrounded by terraced fields, walnut orchards, and traditional Berber homes.
The route up to the Tedli summit offers ever-changing views, from lush valleys to rocky ridges, providing a true taste of Morocco’s mountain landscapes.
A reasonable level of fitness is needed, as the hike involves steady uphill walking for several hours. Comfortable walking shoes, layered clothing, and sun protection are recommended.
No prior mountain hiking experience is required, but you should be prepared for varied terrain.
Mohamed is a local mountain guide from Imlil, a village in the heart of the Atlas Mountains. With over ten years of experience, he has been leading visitors through the trails and peaks of this remarkable region. His passion for nature, different cultures, and mountain trekking began when he was 16, inspired by his father, who was also a guide.
What started as a personal interest grew into a career, and he now enjoys sharing his knowledge of the area, its landscapes, and Berber traditions with visitors. Dedicated to creating an enjoyable and informative experience, he ensures each hike is memorable and rewarding.
The meeting point is in Marrakech, with pick-up and drop off available from your hotel.

The actual trip was fantastic overall- Rachid picked me up as planned and we went up to Imlil. However, the route was not as described in the Adventuro listing and was hard work (745 metres ascent total in 12.5km, the last 5km being about 500m ascent all uphill) not a…
