Tour description
9-Day Combined Toubkal Ski & Sahara Adventure
Experience the best of Morocco’s mountains and desert on this 9-day adventure. Begin with ski touring in the High Atlas Mountains, exploring snow-covered valleys and peaks around Mount Toubkal (4,167 m), North Africa’s highest summit. The region’s altitude and surrounding valleys provide reliable winter snow, just 80 km south of Marrakech.
During the ski portion, you’ll stay in mountain shelters and traditional Berber houses, discovering new valleys and breathtaking landscapes each day. Your journey is fully supported by a local team of guides, cooks, porters, and mules, ensuring a safe and seamless alpine experience.
After the mountains, the tour continues into the Sahara Desert, where you’ll ride camels across golden dunes, enjoy desert sunsets, and sleep under star-filled skies. This combination trip offers a unique blend of alpine skiing, cultural immersion, and desert adventure for a once-in-a-lifetime Moroccan experience.
