FEATURED ITINERARY
12 DAYS · MOROCCO · ON FOOT
From the rooftops of Marrakech to the Atlantic at Essaouira, a slow crossing of North Africa’s highest range — mule tracks, Berber villages, and one very early summit morning.
READ THE FULL ROUTE →
DAY 01
Arrive as the light goes amber. Mint tea on a rooftop in the medina, a last gear check at dusk.
DAY 03
The road ends and the mule track begins. Walnut groves, then the first cold air off the ridge.
DAY 06
A 4 a.m. start under full stars. From the top, the Sahara is a rumour on the southern horizon.
DAY 12
The Atlantic, finally. Gulls, blue boats, and the long exhale of a trip well walked.
