You step out of the minivan into thin, cool air and the High Atlas greets you with stone ridges that seem to push the sky aside. The drive from Marrakech slips into small towns and almond groves; by the time you arrive in Imlil the valley opens into terraced fields and white-washed Berber houses clinging to sunlit slopes. The trailhead hums with mule bells and the smell of mint tea, and your guide unfurls a route map as if tracing the next hour of the landscape’s breath.
