From Imlil the route to one of the shelters lasts approximately 5 hours, which is why many of the visitors use a mule to lift the luggage. From the refuge to the summit, there are 4 more hours of travel. Although it does not present an important difficulty, you have to program the climb well and check the weather conditions since the snow can pose a problem.<\/p>\n<p>Even if it is a simple route, it must be borne in mind that it is not a tourist walk, so carrying appropriate equipment, programming the route and being aware of our physical form, <strong>is essential<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-958\" src=\"https:\/\/arganiatravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cd5_3_04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"730\" height=\"479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.arganiatravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cd5_3_04.jpg 3533w, https:\/\/www.arganiatravel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/cd5_3_04-768x504.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you want to live this adventure, <a href=\"https:\/\/arganiatravel.com\/en\/bookings\/jbel-toubkal-5-days-107\/view\">trust in Argania Travel<\/a> and let us organize your entire stay and your route to get to know this special point of Morocco. <strong>Discover a country that offers wonders for all tastes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mount Toubkal Tubqal, or Toubkal in the French translation, is the highest peak in Morocco and in all areas of North Africa.
