Description

Come with me on this 7-day program and enjoy splitboarding down Mount Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa!

With its 4,167 meters above sea level, Mount Toubkal is the tallest summit in the Atlas Mountains and North Africa. It is located in the Toubkal National Park, in Morocco, and it is a very popular destination for mountaineers around the globe. During the winter, it is the ideal place to enjoy different types of snow activities.

To explore this area and discover this amazing peak, I offer you this 7-day splitboarding program.

First, we will meet at the Marrakech airport and transfer you to Imlil. Then, on the first days of the program, we will have acclimatization ascents in different peaks around the area and enjoy splitboarding. Finally, we will reach the summit of Mount Toubkal. You will get to see the incredible views before going down the mountain. On the last day, we will return to Marrakesh and have a day to explore the city before we drive you to the airport and say goodbye.

For a more detailed description of the activities of each day, take a look at the bottom of the page

Please, take into account that this program is challenging. Consequently, prior splitboarding experience, as well as a very good physical condition, are required.

Interested in this splitboarding adventure? Send your request and book this trip now. I can assure you it will be an unforgettable experience.

If splitboarding is your activity, take a look at these programs in Mont Blanc and Chamonix. I will be happy to guide you there too.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

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.

Valeriya

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

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.

Cami

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.
