Ascent to Jabal Tubkal - 4167 m above sea level
Ascent to the highest mountain in North Africa
The ascent to Tubkal is technically comparable to tours in the Tatras. However, the difference lies in the length of the march and the altitude. I read the opinions of different people on the internet. Some individuals give the peak of Imlil and back in one day. Most people divide the ascent into two days – one day ascent to the cottage and the other to the top and then down to Imlil. After all, it's quite a large elevation gain. We were not in any time and we had the opportunity to divide the output into three days. continue reading

As Sawíra
One of the Moroccan ports and resorts
As Sawíra or Essaouira is a city located on the Atlantic coast about 200km or 3h by taxi from Marrakech. It is not one of the largest, but it still has a nice historic center, a large beach and a harbor where fishermen sell their daily catch. In September, we caught quite windy weather, so there were nice waves at sea and the fact that the Atlantic does not belong to the warm waters, it was not possible to swim much. But it was a paradise for kitesurfers, of whom there were more than enough. continue reading

From Marrakech to Ouarzazate
The most famous road through the High Atlas leads from the vast plains surrounding the royal city of Marrakech to pass Tizi-n-Tichka (2 260 m asl), which is quite often blocked by snow in the winter and is then impassable down around the beautiful kasbahs (clay medieval fortress) to Ouarzazate, the gateway to the valley of river Draa and Sahara desert. continue reading

Visit of Dunes de Tinfou
Lone pile of sand in the stony desert
There are nice „pocket“ dunes Tinfou on the way between Zagora and the end of the road near the algerian border in Mhamid. At first glance, it almost seems as if this was not the work of nature, but of man. All around is a desolate rocky plain and right in the middle a huge pile of sand. continue reading
