Overview

A 10-day guided walking adventure combining the High Atlas Mountains, remote Berber villages, the M’Goun region and the Sahara dunes of Merzouga. This itinerary is designed for active travelers who want a compact but varied Morocco trekking experience, moving from mountain trails to desert landscapes.

The journey begins in Marrakech before heading into the Central High Atlas. The first trekking section leads through Arous, the Tarkeddit Plateau, the M’Goun area, Iri N’Aït Hamou and Ameskar, with mountain views, village life and wild open landscapes. After the Atlas section, the itinerary continues south to Merzouga for a guided walk in the dunes before returning through Ouarzazate and Marrakech.

This program is ideal for travelers who enjoy guided walking, nature, local encounters and scenic variety. The route can be customized with different walking levels, mule-supported trekking, local guesthouses, simple mountain camps, desert camps, private transfers and upgraded accommodation before and after the trekking sections.
