Description

Mgoun is one of the best choices for the practice of summer trekking outside The European Alps. And that’s why today I have an excellent invitation for you…

Mgoun is not only an extraordinary destination for hiking, but it is also an unique opportunity to find the mysteries of a different culture, a non occidental food and a landscape that mixes aridity with green oasis. All this and much more can be found in the marvelous mountain range of High Atlas, in Morocco.

The hiking trails of Mgoun and Mount Toubkal are suitable for all levels and technical skills. It consists in a 6-day guided tour that includes the following features:

Local cooks that will make you taste very exotic flavors
Mountain huts and rural houses
The help of mules
A complete mountain guide service
All transfers from and to Marrakech

During these 6 days we will have a prudent time to acclimate our bodies and make this adventure nicer. Then, I’ll give you the details of an estimate itinerary. Remember I can plan a personalized trip according to your own wishes:

DAY 1

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

Joshua

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
