The spectacular High Atlas Mountain region of Morocco is an imlil paradise. With one day we drive to the village of Imlil in the High Atlas Mountains. The drive alone is superb, following the river up into the High Atlas passing through small rural villages, on the sides of the hills, and springing up the fields. Later in the year the apples are harvested and even in the winter you can smell the apples in the air. From Imlil center we walk up to the village of Aremd, from here you can see across the flood plains to Jbel Toubkal at 4169mtrs. One of my routes goes through Aremd, through the groves and villages of Tagadirt and Targa Imoula and along the Tamater Valley back to Imlil. These trips can be extended if you wish to spend some time trekking in the region. We also offer a day trip to Aremd, along the way, through Berber villages and lunch in Tamatert or in Tourtatine which is nestled in walnut and cherry woodlands. This is an ideal option for a family day out. Please ask me about this option. Another road takes us to the opposite valley to Ait Mizan, a village perched on the hillside, here you can have a nice lunch in my house the Berber house down the valley are astonishing and well worth the effort. As time goes on I will have more options for short and medium treks in this area. For a few months of the year this region is in the snow belt, but it is a very beautiful time to visit. The low winter sun casts incredible shadows across the landscape and you can get the most amazing photos.
