7 Day
Incredible trekking adventure holiday amongst the remote mountains of the Jebel Saghro in Morocco! Sandwiched between the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco and the Sahara, the beautiful mountain region of Jebel Saghro is the perfect destination for winter sunshine trekking. Our Jbel Saghro Trekking 5 Days walking adventure holiday in Morocco takes you from magical Marrakech to explore the heart of the Jebel Saghro. We’ll be trekking amongst rocky peaks, hidden valleys and green oases, where we’ll find the traditional villages of the welcoming Berber people. Walking along quiet trails through a variety of spectacular Jebel Saghro scenery, we’ll trek to the summit of the highest peak in the Jebel Saghro range, Amalou n’Mansour (2712m). With warm days and crystal clear visibility, the walking conditions are ideal and the vistas are superb, with the views northwards from the Jebel Saghro over to the sparkling snow-capped peaks of the High Atlas Mountains. An exciting drive across the High Atlas Mountains sees us back in UNESCO Marrakech. Here we have a free day to explore the bustling Djemaa-el-Fna and souk, which provides a fitting end to this spectacular two week adventure trekking holiday in the undiscovered Jebel Saghro!
