Atlas Mountains
Asni and Imlil Valley Day Trip
Pick up from Dar Zaman at 09h30 and drive 50km along the road towards Taroudant to the village of Asni, a Berber village that lies on the edge of the Toubkal National Park. At Asni take the first left turn towards the mountain village of Imlil (approximately 5km along this road you’ll pass Sir Richard Branson’s Kasbah Tamadot, a great option for lunch or coffee as you head out of the valley on your journey back to Marrakech).
Passing through superb valleys and gorges along a narrow winding road, after 17km you arrive in the village of Imlil, nestled at the foot of the High Atlas mountain range. Imlil is the departure point for hikes in the Toubkal National Park, for visiting the Kasbah du Toubkal, and for climbing Mount Toubkal (4167m), the highest peak in North Africa.
Wander around the village of Imlil and walk up to the Kasbah du Toubkal, a 15 min walk/mule ride from the village, along a path that climbs slowly at first, then more steeply through the walnut groves up to the Kasbah. Beyond the Kasbah are hiking opportunities, rivers of melting snow and stunning waterfalls.
You can have lunch at one of several cafés in the village, at the Kasbah du Toubkal or at Kasbah Tamadot (reservations recommended).
