You leave Marrakech before dawn and the city’s ochre roofs shrink behind you as the road climbs into the High Atlas. The air sharpens; terraces and fruit trees give way to stone village lanes and the serrated silhouette of Mount Toubkal appears on the skyline. By mid-morning you step onto a worn mountain path in Imlil Valley where the guide sets the pace and local villages punctuate the hills.
