Atlas mountains and imlil day trip is one of the most spectacular day trips from Marrakech if you desire to get out of the city and delve in the authentic and rural side of Morocco. We will start our Imlil day trip at 09am from Marrakech by a comfortable clean mini van with English speaking driver for 1h30 drive south up the Moulay Brahim Gorges, and the Berber village of Asni very popular for its weekly market every Saturday then to Imlil Crossing a vibrant green valley that stays fresh and lush even during the hottest days of the summer.

 Imlil is a small village at the foothills of the highest mountains in Morocco Toubkal mountain. Imlil is the center to hire mountain guides and mules due its unique position and its connection to several Berber villages and a very popular start point of treks and hikes for climbing Toubkal mountain.

  Arrival to Imlil here you meet your local tour guide and leave the vehicle and start a walk for 1hour towards the south to the Berber village of (Aremd) (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.

 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 thence carry on for another Half an Hour to get to our lunch wish will be served on top of beautiful terrace among a Berber family in the village of Achayn Afterwards you can take a short walk before we return to Marrakech .

 You will spend valuable time with your Berber guides and hosts , learning about their lives and beliefs and absorbing their culture .
