ROUTE DESCRIPTION
Embark on an unforgettable adventure through the Moroccan High Atlas, where three of its most iconic peaks await you: Jbel Toubkal (4,167 m), Ras n'Ouanoukrim (4,083 m), and Timesguida n'Ouanoukrim (4,089 m) . This trek will take you through stunning landscapes, from verdant valleys to snow-capped peaks, and will allow you to immerse yourself in the rich Berber culture. The route begins in the picturesque village of Imlil and ascends gradually, allowing for proper acclimatization before tackling the demanding summit climbs. During the journey, you will spend the night in strategically located mountain refuges, enjoying local hospitality and panoramic views that reward every step.
Three Four-Thousanders in the Heart of the Atlas
This trek will take you to three of North Africa's highest peaks: the imposing Jbel Toubkal, Ras n'Ouanoukrim, and Timesguida n'Ouanoukrim. Each climb offers unique challenges and panoramic views that reward the effort. The route is designed to allow for gradual acclimatization, increasing your chances of success and enjoyment on each summit.
Discover Marrakech and Imlil, the Gateway to the High Atlas
The trip begins in the vibrant city of Marrakech, where you can explore its souks, palaces, and the famous Jemaa el-Fnaa square. Afterward, we'll move on to the picturesque village of Imlil, the starting point of our journey. This combination of cultural and natural experiences enriches the trek, allowing you to connect with the essence of Morocco before embarking on our adventure in the mountains.
Toubkal in Summer and
Winter
Jbel Toubkal offers two unique experiences depending on the season. In summer, the dry trails and clear skies allow for long days of trekking through arid landscapes and endless panoramas. In winter, snow and ice transform the mountain into a more technical and demanding alpine challenge. Two distinct ways to experience the Atlas, always with the grandeur of Jbel Toubkal as the ultimate reward.

ROUTE ITINERARY
DAY 1
Practical introduction to basic wall climbing techniques
This morning will be dedicated to learning the basic techniques for safe and independent rock climbing. We'll work on pitch alternation, setting up and managing belay stations, belaying from above and below, and rappelling techniques for the descent. In the afternoon, we'll put these skills into practice on a short and accessible route in Riglos, ideal for beginners. Overnight in a comfortable hotel to rest and prepare for the next day.
DAY 2
Long route in Riglos: Route selection and continuous support during the climb
Cecilia will personally advise you on choosing the most suitable route according to your level and goals. During your multi-pitch climb in Riglos, you'll have constant support from the ground to resolve any questions or unexpected situations. Cecilia doesn't guide on the wall, but she'll be attentive to every detail to ensure your safety and confidence. Dinner at the hotel to recharge.
DAY 3
Day off
Enjoy a free day to relax and choose an alternative activity, such as rafting on nearby rivers, or explore the local heritage by visiting a landmark castle or a winery. Lunch will be at a gourmet restaurant, and in the afternoon you can stroll through the city of Huesca before returning to the hotel to rest.
DAY 4
Advanced techniques for safe and independent climbing
In the morning, we'll delve into advanced techniques: using double ropes for added safety, effective communication on the wall, and handling unexpected situations such as coiling the rope correctly or hauling weight while climbing. In the afternoon, we'll practice these skills on short or medium-length routes to solidify our knowledge.

DAY 5
Climbing in Peña Rueba with personalized technical support

The scenery is out of this world, and the team made everything easy, even during tough moments. Climbing Toubkal has been one of the most beautiful challenges I’ve experienced. Thank you for making it possible!"

— Mountain Club, 6 people, Munich
MEET YOUR GUIDE
CECILIA BUIL
Professional climber, climbing guide and instructor
For me, every person and every mountain is unique. I like to design tailored, unhurried experiences where you enjoy the journey, learn something new, and strengthen that connection with nature that changes us from within.
I've spent over two decades traveling the world in search of new walls, ice, and routes: from Greenland, Pakistan, Mexico, and Alaska, to the Alps and Canada. But I've also grown as a climber in iconic locations like Riglos and the Pyrenees. I've climbed in diverse styles—aid, free, ice, big wall—and have led long expeditions, national teams, and trained climbing coaches.
Today, I offer all this experience to those who want to connect with the mountains in a safe, sustainable, and authentic way. My philosophy as a guide is based on safety, respect for the environment, and connecting with the mountains to transform people.
