Day Trip FROM marrakech to imlil

Starting around 8:00 AM, embark on a scenic drive lasting about an hour to reach Moulay Brahim Gorges. Here, you’ll find yourself at a central trailhead surrounded by streams and pathways leading in various directions. Experience the novelty of camel riding before continuing onwards to the charming Imlil valley, passing through numerous authentic Berber villages along the way. Upon reaching Imlil, disembark from the vehicle and proceed into the heart of the village.

Your journey continues with a warm welcome and a refreshing glass of mint tea, followed by a 3-kilometer mule ride up to Armed, the highest and most expansive village in the Imlil valley. Trek for either 1 or 3 hours to the picturesque Berber village of Ait Souka, traversing through the quaint hamlets of Ait Mizan, Targa, and Imoula, with a stopover in Tamatert.

Indulge in a delightful lunch experience hosted by a local Berber family, all while soaking in the breathtaking vistas of ancient terraced fields adorned with barley, corn, and assorted vegetables, framed by cherry and walnut trees. Afterward, journey onward for another 30 minutes to reach the humble abode of another Berber family, where you’ll be treated to more mint tea and an intimate glimpse into their way of life. Take a leisurely stroll down to ‘Azroul’ to marvel at the cascading waterfalls before commencing your return journey down the opposite side of the valley to ‘Taourirt.’ Finally, conclude your memorable excursion as we drive you back to Marrakech.
