The perfect blend of hiking and relaxation, this Atlas Trek & Agafay Desert trip offers something for every traveler.
Your journey begins with a drive from Marrakech to Imlil Valley, a picturesque village nestled in the High Atlas Mountains. Known as the gateway to the Atlas, Imlil is the ideal starting point for your trek. As you journey through the valley, you’ll be treated to mesmerizing views of terraced fields, walnut groves, and charming Berber villages. The air is fresh, and the landscapes are dotted with stone-built houses that tell the story of centuries-old traditions.
The trek offers various trails to suit different fitness levels, allowing you to enjoy the mountains at your own pace. Along the way, you’ll be accompanied by a local guide who will share fascinating insights into Berber culture and history.

After a day of exploring the valley, you’ll settle into a cozy guesthouse or mountain lodge for the night. Enjoy a warm and hearty meal featuring traditional Moroccan dishes while taking in the peaceful atmosphere of the valley. The cool atlas mountain air, combined with the stunning views, makes this a perfect spot to unwind and rest for the next day’s adventure.
On the final day of your journey, leave the Atlas Mountains behind and head towards the Agafay Desert, located just outside of Marrakech. This rocky desert is a stunning contrast to the highlands, offering a landscape of golden dunes and vast, open spaces.
Your experience in the Agafay Desert is truly one of a kind. Check into a luxurious desert camp where you’ll spend the night in comfort and style. Each tent is elegantly furnished, featuring plush bedding, private bathrooms, and all the modern amenities you need to feel pampered while immersed in nature. As the sun sets over the dunes, the desert sky transforms into a magical starlit canvas.
