Highlights
- Imlil - Departure from Marrakech at 8:00am for 2hour drive south up the Moulay Brahim Gorges, Asni weekly market every saturday then toImlil (1740m), set in the upper level foothills of the Western High Atlas mountains, a main trailhead with streams and paths branching out in all directions. Here we shall leave our vehicle to take a welcome glass of mint tea in the village and meet your local guide prior to setting out for some 4km excursion.
- Cascade Imlil - towards the south to the Berber village of Aroumd (1843m), passing the hamlets of ait souka, Targa, and Imoula, up and down the stark slopes, the jagged Western High Atlas peaks of the Toubkal Massif before us - Jbels Aguelzim (3547m), Aksouâl (3847m) and the Adrar Adj (3122m) watching us all the way.
- Imlil - We shall stop at Aroumd to visit this rather singular village in the Assif Aït Mizane Valley, built seemingly house upon house on a large moraine spur, overlooking ancient irrigated terraced fields of barley, corn and vegetables and always surrounded by almond and walnut trees. We then carry on for another half an hour to get to the Berber house for lunch ,back down the other side of the valley back to Imlil and our return trip to Marrakech at 6pm .

excellent trip to Imlil - The tour to Imlil was excellent experience. Our driver was very knowledgeable and friendly. Our driver Shuaib was really good driver.
At Imlil our guide Hassan was also really good. First we did go up in the hill to get better view of the Imlil. Then we planned the trekking trip together that we are going to do. Our guide Hassan at Imlil knew the area like his own pockets. Also he adjusted the pace for our needs as I had leg injury last summer so I couldn't go really fast. That was really nice. We did go top of the hill and walked around the valley in circular motion so we could see the mountains and valley in every direction. Also we did go to waterfall and enjoyed really good freshly squeezed orange juice. I mean really fresh as it was squeezed in front of us. It was only 10dirhams/1euro per glass.
On the way to get lunch we saw some donkeys and wondered how it would feel like riding a donkey. Hassan heard it and started calling people :D he arranged us donkey ride on the fly and it was cheap. Given we took it in the end from one village to next one where our lunch was. It was really nice from him to arrange that.
At the end we had authentic meal at the terrace of berber family. It was really good.
I would recommend this tour to everybody. Everyone were really friendly and helpful. All our needs were fulfilled.
