A thin mountain wind greets you as the road drops out of Marrakech and the red city gives way to sculpted ridgelines. By mid-morning you’re in the Imlil Valley, apple orchards and stone Berber houses clinging to terraces, and the trail pushing you upward toward the Tasghimot skyline. The climb alternates between shaded mule paths and open scree where the wind seems to urge you forward; at the summit, the High Atlas stretches 360 degrees, peaks and passes folding into blue distance.

The Imlil Valley has long been a summer grazing and farming corridor for Berber communities; trails connect villages that predate modern roads and were historically used for trade and pilgrimage to Toubkal.
